Schafer Hits Quads to Almost Triple; Greene Busts
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With about 33,000 in the pot on a board of 4♦J♥5♠5♥, Jonathan Greene jammed for around 8,000 from the small blind and Yueqi Zhu called in the hijack. James Schafer then jammed from the button for 50,500, and Zhu called with the covering stack.
Jonathan Greene: A♦Q♣9♥8♥2♠
James Schafer: A♥5♣5♦4♠4♣
Yueqi Zhu: A♣8♦6♥3♥2♦
Schafer had the high locked up with unbeatable quad fives and asked the dealer for a high river card.
The dealer listened to Schafer's pleas and peeled off the Q♥ to complete the board. Schafer nearly tripled up, Zhu was left short, and Greene headed to the rail.
