Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ozkan Cakir opened the action from early position for 4,000 and was called by a middle position player and the hijack. Young Hwi Cho, on the button, went all in for 24,000 total.

Cakir then made the call and then the middle-position player shoved for 30,000. The hijack, who had 36,500 behind, then went into the tank for nearly two minutes before going all in himself. Cakir called and there was a small crowd gathered around the table for the four-way showdown.

Young Hwi Cho: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Middle Position: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Hijack: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Ozkan Cahir: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Cahir had the biggest of the three pocket pairs and was surprised and excited to see that he was ahead, though Cho had overcards to the rest of them.

With each of the players yelling for their hand to become good, the flop came {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Clubs} putting Cho way out in front.

The turn brought the {q-Diamonds}, giving Cho two pair and giving four cards to an unlikely four-way chop.

The river was the {8-Spades}, giving Cho the quadruple up while Cakir earned the side pot to cut his losses to just 18,500 on the hand.
