Gavin Griffin Hits Quads

Gavin Griffin pushed his 5,100 chips into the pot from middle position preflop and got called by the small blind. The hands were turned over and we we're racing, with Griffin showing {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} versus his opponent's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}.

The race didn't last long though, with Griffin sealing the hand after a flop of {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. The {6-Spades} and {8-Spades} changed nothing, and Griffin now sits on 12,000 chips.
