Jouhkimainen Flops Quads, Nesterenko's Aces Are Useless
Level 5
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Over in the pro player territory, a big pot was brewing between Joni Jouhkimainen in the small blind and Sergei Nesterenko in the big blind.
There were already around 1,700,000 in the pot on a board of K♠K♦3♣2♣ when the rest of Nesterenko's stack of around 300,000 got in on the turn.
Sergei Nesterenko: A♦A♣9♠3♥ 
Joni Jouhkimainen: K♥K♣9♣9♥
Nesterenko slumped over when he saw that Jouhkimainen had made quads, which meant no card on the river would change the outcome of the hand.
After wishing his tablemates good luck, Nesterenko got out of his seat and headed to the exit.
