Villarreal Can't Get Much Action With Quads

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

A player on the button raised to 200, and was called by Event #4: $400 No-Limit Hold'em Six-Handed ring winner Bradley Jansen in the small blind, as well as Anselmo Villarreal in the big blind.

All three players checked the {9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop, and action checked to the button on the {5-Clubs} turn. The button bet 200, and both Jansen and Villarreal called.

Action checked through again on the {j-Clubs} river, and the button showed {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. Villarreal tabled {j-Spades}{9-Clubs} with a sheepish grin, prompting Jansen to say, "That's going to win, I think," before mucking, and Villarreal, who flopped a full house and rivered quads, took down the early pot.
