Tikhoniouk Runs Into Quads
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
In an interesting hand before the break reported to us by one of our colleagues, Omar Dahmani opened under the gun to 12,000 and start of day chipleader Alex Tikhoniouk flatted from the big blind to see a flop heads up.
Tikhoniouk check called a bet of 20,000 on 
and lead for 28,000 on the 
turn. Dahmani made the call and the dealer put the 
out on the river.
Alex Tikhoniouk now checked, and called a bet of 58,000 that followed. Dahmani showed 
for flopped quads and Tikhoniouk mucked.
