A Full Quadruple-Up for Ian Johns

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Ian Johns

In a four-way, single-raised pot, the flop came {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Ray Henson checked in the small blind, Carmen Fung checked in the big blind, and Ian Johns bet with 1,000 chips behind. Matt Grapenthien called on the button, and so did Henson and Fung. The turn was the {5-Hearts}, and the blinds checked again. Johns went all in for his last 1,000 chips, and all three opponents just called.

The river was the {9-Spades}, and the three players that could still bet for a side pot all checked.

Johns announced, "Aces up," and tabled {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts} for aces and fives. His hand was good against Grapenthien's {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, as well as the others' pocket twos and pocket fours.

Tablemate Christopher Chung laughed as he told Johns, "We had four outs total to bust you."

Johns explained to his tablemates, "You gotta wait for the goods. You can't just put it in with anything."

Just a little while ago down to 12,000 chips, the three-time bracelet winner collected the pot to quadruple up to 58,000.
