Gotleib Connects Four

We missed the majority of the action, but we'll tell you what we know about this big pot that unfolded while we had our backs turned.

The board ended up reading {7-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}, and there was heavy heads-up action. Joe Gotlieb and Mike Parizon each put a chunk of chips into the pot on the flop, and the rest of Gotlieb's ~55,000-chip stack went in on the turn. Parizon was right there to call him down with {A-Clubs} {A-Spades}, but it was no good. Gotlieb tabled {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}, further improving to quads when the river landed on board.

After that big exchange, Gotlieb has shot himself up into the top tier of the chip counts with 115,000, dropping the once-mighty Parizon all the way down to 38,000.
