Kertland Rivers Quads to Eliminate Baybayan, Leaves Shanks With Crumbs

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Ryan Baybayan open-jammed under the gun for 51,000, Jesse Kertland called from middle position along with William Shanks on the button.

The {8-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop was checked to the {9-Clubs} turn, where Kertland fired out 65,000. Shanks asked for a count and after getting the confirmed amount, announced all in and Kertland quickly called.

Ryan Baybayan: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Jesse Kertland: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
William Shanks: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

Kertland had flopped a set of eights but was out-turned by Shanks set of nines. Baybayan was still alive drawing to a ten but Shanks was in good shape to get a double elimination.

However, the dealer had different plans as Kertland rivered quad eights with the {8-Spades} to eliminate Baybayan and leave Shanks with only two big blinds.
