Caputo Makes Quads to Eliminate Chorlian
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Brandon Caputo opened 32,000 under the gun and four players made the call.
When the 9?8?7? flop hit the felt, Robert Chorlian checked and Caputo continued for 175,000. The action folded back to Caputo and he called off his 18,000.
Robert Chorlian: Q?J?8?8? 
Brandon Caputo: 9?9?6?6?
Both players flopped a set, but Caputo was way out in front with top set. The 9? fell on the turn to give him quads and the 4? river was just a formality as Chorlian headed to the payout desk.
