The hand was completed but there were lots of chips to count after a five-way all-in preflop. The player under-the-gun shipped all-in with pocket tens, the next player also went all-in with ace-king. There was a player after him who pushed all-in with pocket jacks. The player on the button looked down at pocket queens and said, sure why not, pushed all-in as well. Frederico Butteroni was watching all of this happen from the big blind. It was his turn to act and he was cheering for the aces. What do you know, the 
showed up and he joined the party pushing his remaining chips in the pot as well!
The dealer spread the board of 
and it would be the pocket jacks taking down a smaller main pot. Fredrico Butteroni had 46,500 more than him to start the hand, and after stacking up a huge side pot he now sits comfortably around the 100,000 mark.
