It's Raining Quads

Scott "Punty" Smith
Scott "Punty" Smith
There's been a small rash of quads in the last few minutes. Scott Smith got things started. On a flop of {2-Spades} {5-Spades} {5-Hearts}, he found himself in a raising war with his only opponent. All of the chips wounds up in the middle, with Smith tabling {2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} against his opponent's pocket aces. The board ran out {6-Hearts} {2-Hearts} to make quad deuces for Smith. He's up to 35,000.

A short time later, short-stacked Tony Hachem moved all in on a flop of {9-Hearts} {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts}. He was called by a player who showed {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} for a big draw against Hachem's {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs}. The river was the case ace, the {A-Diamonds}, to make quad aces for Hachem. He's up to about 9,000 in chips.
