Death by Quads for Pillon

Level 2 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
James Pillon

David Cowling opened to 18,000 from under the gun and was called by a player in middle position. Marc MacDonnell called from the hijack along with Aleks Dimitrov on the button. James Pillon re-raised to 110,000 from the small blind which got called by Cowling, MacDonnell, and Dimitrov.

The flop fell {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and Pillon pushed all in for around 550,000. Cowling and MacDonnell both quickly folded but Dimitrov snap-called to put Pillon at risk.

Dimitrov: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Pillon: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Pillon was drawing nearly dead after flopping top pair against Dimitrov's set of tens. The {10-Hearts} on the turn gave Dimitrov quads and Pillon headed for the exit.
