Quads Fuels Double Knockout
A wild hand broke out during the first level on Day 1c of the RunGood Poker Series Lodge Card Club $600 Main Event.
The hand started off innocently enough with a limp by Thanh Le from the cutoff. Santiago Bernal opted to make it 800 on the button. Timothy Taylor chose to three-bet to 2,500 from the small blind, but the chips had hardly hit the felt before Patricia Davis four-bet to 5,700 from the big blind.
Le pounced with an all-in for 32,500. Taylor shipped it for more, and Davis also went all-in for approximately 30,000, creating a three-handed all-in pot with Le and Davis at risk.
Patricia Davis: A♠A♦
Thanh Le: K♠K♥
Timothy Taylor: Q♥Q♠
Davis had the best of it as she was at the top of the rankings of the cooler. Davis would not enjoy that lead long when the flop came 8♣8♠Q♦, improving Taylor to the best hand with a full house.
Davis and Le were left searching for an ace or king, respectively. The 9♦ turn was of no consequence.
Taylor would improve to four of a kind on the Q♣ river as he scored the early double knockout.
Davis and Le have both rebought and have started anew with a fresh stack.
