"Sacnho" Doubles Up Early with Quads
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
"Sancho" was all-in from under the gun and Stefan Zaugg had made the call from early position. The rest of the table got out of the way and the two players had an early showdown.
"Sancho": J?J?
Stefan Zaugg: Q?Q?
"Sancho" had one foot out of the door, however, the deck had a surprise in store when he promptly flopped quads on J?9?J?. The turn 9? meant there would be no miraculous runner-runner runout for Zaugg, and the 5? river was dealt as a formality.
Zaugg would be left with 5,000, which he would quadruple a few hands later to still have a shot to make the money.
