Sochneu Joins the Big Stacks Thanks to Quads
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Modar Alsoud raised to 30,000 from the hijack before Siarhei Sochneu made it 130,000 from the cutoff. Dietrich Fast four-bet to 250,000 from the button, forcing out Alsoud. Sochneu shipped in his stack, which covered the roughly 650,000 that Fast had. Fast thought briefly, and called for his tournament life.
Siarhei Sochneu: Q♣Q♥
Dietrich Fast: 9♦9♥
Sochneu left Fast needing to go runner-runner after the Q♦J♥7♦ flop, but the Q♠ turn gave him quads for the checkmark. The A♣ river completed the board and Fast departed in the dying embers of Day 2.
