All Players Involved in All-in Madness
Oliver Weis had been forced all in from the big blind, with just 3,500 remaining in his stack. Alejandro Ganivet made the call under the gun, having to match the blind, rather than the 3,500. Next to act was Scott Stewart, who decided to jam, despite only having 500 chips more than a single big blind. left. The next four consecutive players, Davidi Kitai, Luis Faria, Robert Paddock, and John Hennigan, all called the second all-in.
The action didn't stop there, though, as Rob Hollink then reshoved from the big blind, for 50,000. Ganivet got out of the way, Kitai reshoved for 300,000, Pinho De Faria and Paddock folded, and Hennigan called all in. Five players total had cards on their backs awaiting a runout.
Oliver Weis: 4♦4♥ 
Scott Stewart: J♠8♦
Rob Hollink: 3♥3♣
John Hennigan: K♥J♣
Davidi Kitai: 9♠9♥
Kitai was favorite to knock out all four players, and it stayed that way on the 5♦10♠A♣ flop. The turn 8♥ meant he had to fade a king, queen, jack, eight, four, or three to pick up a whopping $12,000 in one hand. The river 3♠ was had an unidentifiable amount of real-money equity for Hollink: his rivered set gave him $6,000 in bounties, as well as a triple up, survival, and all of the dead money in the middle. Kitai had to settle for just the single elimination.
