Quads over Quads in Crazy Hand
Sardor Shagulyamov had taken a hit to his starting stack, and moved all in for 3,000 from early position. He received calls from Arsalan Shemirani in the cutoff, Miika Toyras on the button, and Antreas Papaioannou in the small blind.
As the players waited for the flop, Shagulyamov quipped "Three callers, this is the respect I get.", with a tablemate commenting, "No it's better for you."
The Q?3?3? flop was checked through, with Shagulyamov calling for a heart on the turn.
The turn brought the Q?, bringing a double-paired board, and again was checked through, with Shagulyamov commenting "Ah, I'm dead."
The 3? river meant a full house was on the board. Action checked to Shemirani, who fired out a bet of 5,000. Toyras called, reluctant to be forced off a potential chopped pot, but Papaioannou folded.
Toyras tabled A?J?, playing the board, but Shemirani had Q?Q? for quad queens, much to the shock of the table.
Shagulyamov started laughing and a tablemate asked "No, you don't have the three do you?", and Shagulyamov turned over 5?3? for quad threes, causing much mirth.
Shagulyamov took the beat with good grace, chuckling to himself and high-fiving the player in the next seat as he departed.
