Spragg Hits Quads in Preflop All-In Situation
Peter Charalambous was sitting middle position and made the raise to 32,000. PokerStars Ambassador Benjamin Spragg was one seat over in the cutoff and he put in the three-bet to an even 100,000. The action folded back to Charalambous who made the four-bet shove. It covered Spragg's stack of around 430,000, who quickly made the call.
Benjamin Spragg: Q?Q?
Peter Charalambous: A?K?
It was a classic preflop flip for the two players, which was almost definitively decided in Spragg's favor when the flop came A?Q?Q?. Quads for ''Spraggy'' meant that Charalambous had to catch running aces to win the pot.
The turn A? brought one of them for a tiny sweat, but Spragg faded the one-outer when the 3? river hit.
''We were always gonna get it in, weren't we?'' commented Charalambous while counting out the exact chips necessary to pay off Spragg.
