White's All Right

The action folded around to a player in middle position who raised to 16,000; Thomas White then came in with a reraise of 34,000 from the button and the others got out of the way before the middle position player four-bet it to 84,000. White snap-shoved and the middle position player beat him into the pot.

Opponent: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
White: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

To White's relief, he managed to hit quads on the board of {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} to double up and stay alive in this tournament.
