Paris Knocks Out Marcello with Quads

Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

In a preflop confrontation Raimondo Marcello was all in from the big blind for 12,500 and up against Bryan Paris in middle position who had a covering stack.
Raimondo Marcello: K?Q?
Bryan Paris: J?J?
Marcello made top pair on the Q?8?J? flop, but needed running cards to preserve his tournament life against Paris, who had flopped middle set. Paris improved to quads on the J? turn, leaving Marcello drawing dead. After the 9? river, Marcello made his exit from the tournament area while Paris took down a decent pot.
