Tatsuhiko Hayashi Rivers Quads

Level 5: 200 / 500 ante: 500

With a pot of 11,700 in the middle on flop J J 9 , three way action was checked to Tatsuhiko Hayashi on the button, prompting him to bet 4,000. Both Hiroki Kajiwara and Jihun Choi made the call, and headed to turn 4 . All three checked it through to river J , where Choi gunned for a final 15,000.


Hayashi, holding the stone-cold nuts with A J , mistakenly just called, and as a result, received a six-hand penalty. His quads of jacks however, ultimately crushed Choi's Q Q , securing him the pot and a brief break before he returned to action.
