A player in the big blind bet 2,000 on a completed board of {5-Spades}{j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{j-Hearts}. Steve Bell was in middle position and announced a raise after tossing a T5,000 chip in. The bettor put in a reraise to 9,000, and Bell immediately moved all in. His opponent quickly called but Bell flipped over the quads: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Bell won his package with a third-place finish at RunGood Council Bluffs.
