Quad-zilla

On a board of {4-Hearts} {k-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {k-Spades} {j-Spades}, Erik Backlund led the river for 6,000 chips. Young Suk Shon tanked for well over a minute before reluctantly making the call. It was a reluctant call for good reason; Backlund turned over {K-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} for four of a kind, kings. That also happened to be the nuts. Needless to say (but we'll say it anyway), Backlund dragged the pot to increase his count to about 41,000.
