Speir Quadruples But Cousineau Big Winner

Day 1 chip leader William Speir went all in preflop, Jeffrey Gibralter reraised to 21,500 with Ferenc Deak and Roch Cousineau calling as the players saw a {J-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {5-Spades} flop. Roch Cousineau was first to act from the small blind and led out for 40,000, Gibralter got out of the way but Deak called all in and Cousineau would have a chance for the double knockout.

Speir: {A-Spades} {J-Spades} {J-Hearts} {7-Clubs}
Deak: {A-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Hearts}
Cousineau {A-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {2-Clubs}

Speir was looking good with a jacks-full for the quadruple up as long as Deak didn’t hit the case five for quads while Cousineau held the nut flush draw. The turn was the {10-Spades} which didn’t change a thing but the river came the {9-Clubs} which gave Cousineau his flush to win the sidepot and eliminate Deak.
