Thao "Scratch" Thiem
Thao "Scratch" Thiem

On a {10-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop, a player bet 800 in middle position and was called by Thao "Scratch" Thiem. The small blind, who had checked, raised to 3,000, chasing the bettor out but not Thiem. The {10-Clubs} turned and Thiem called another 3,000. On a blank river, the small blind bet 5,000, and Thiem said he was all in. It was only 3,600 more, and the small blind quickly called, showing {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} for a boat. Thiem had the quads with {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.
