Quads Over Quads

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

When PokerNews arrived, there was already a lot of noise coming from the table. But we managed to catch the board showing 5?8?8?5?2?, with a player from the middle position out of her seat and astonished that she would be exiting the tournament with 5?5? for quads. Barry Goldberg was the player fortunate enough to have flopped quads with 8?8?.

Goldberg apologized to his opponent for the brutal cooler he had just inflicted on her, but he will surely be happy to be adding more chips to his already impressive chip stack.
