button in SafariQuads for Cortazar, Cooler Leaves Polito With Crumbs
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With a raise to 80,000 in front of him, Laurent Polito three-bet to 255,000 on the button. The action then folded to Xavier Cortazar in the big blind, who moved all in for 1,095,000. The original raiser got out of the way, but Polito snap-called.
Xavier Cortazar : J♠J♣ 
Laurent Polito: A♠A♦
Polito couldn't watch as the dealer spread the flop, but he soon realized it was bad news.
The K♣8♠J♥ flop catapulted Cortazar into the lead with a set.
A dejected Polito could only watch on as the 9♣ turn and J♦ river only served to improve Cortazar to quads, leaving Polito with half of a small blind.
