Baldwin Four-Bet Shoves

From under the gun, Jeffrey Papola raised to 100,000. He's been constantly min-raising every time he opens a pot, so this is the norm for him. Jarred Solomon was in the next position and reraised to 285,000. Action the moved to the small blind where Joe Baldwin sat. He raised again, four-betting to 550,000. Papola folded and then action fell back on Solomon and he went into the tank.

"Wow, really? Really?!?!" he said as he slammed his chips and shook his head back and forth. Eventually, he mucked his hand and dropped to about 1.1 million in chips. Baldwin moved back over two million.
