The dealer was in the process of finishing a runout with Edmon Dominguez all-in preflop for the last of his chips with two jacks. His opponent had two fives.
Two more fives appeared on the flop, causing a rauckus from the entire table.
"Give him quads, why don't you?!" joked Dominguez, who stood up and left the table as he failed to hit running quads of his own.
Meanwhile, Ryan Phan was also just spotted taking the last of another player's chips with ![]()
after the river brought a completed board of ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
. Upon calling it all off with the second-best hand, Phan's opponent sent his cards to the muck and the dealer scooped them up without exposing them.
Phan entered shortly before the first break of the day and is off to a fast start now, already chipping up to 65K.
