Quads Tossed Into the Muck

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

With the action folding to the player in the small blind, he took a look at his hand, shook his head and chuckled. He then open folded revealing the {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} to reveal the impressive yet useless quads. "When's the last time you threw quads away?" Asked another player. "Never had them," he said.

In the Money

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

On a board of {4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{6-Hearts} the player shoved his last remaining 7,000 holding {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades} and was called. He soon saw he was drawing dead against top pair with his opponent holding {A-Spades}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} The river fell a meaningless {4-Diamonds} and the remaining 179 have now locked up a cash of at least $835.
