Underpair to the Board Is Good in Four-Way Showdown
Level 6
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu limped in from under the gun, as did Chance Kornuth in the cutoff. Talal Shakerchi completed in the small blind and Lewis Spencer checked his option in the big blind.
All four players checked to a showdown with the full board reading 8♣4♠Q♥4♦K♠. Shakerchi was first to table as he rolled over J♦10♦. Spencer flipped over 2♣2♦ for an underpair to the board, which was seemingly enough to see all three of his opponents muck their cards.
