Paris Knocks Out Marcello with Quads
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
In a preflop confrontation Raimondo Marcello was all in from the big blind for 12,500 and up against Bryan Paris in middle position who had a covering stack.
Raimondo Marcello: K♦Q♥ 
Bryan Paris: J♣J♠
Marcello made top pair on the Q♠8♥J♦ flop, but needed running cards to preserve his tournament life against Paris, who had flopped middle set. Paris improved to quads on the J♥ turn, leaving Marcello drawing dead. After the 9♠ river, Marcello made his exit from the tournament area while Paris took down a decent pot.
