Davies and Sorensen Chop After Both Backing Into Quads
Seth Davies and Torben Sorensen played a very memorable hand at Table 21 that ended in the two chopping with the nuts.
PokerNews picked up the action on 
with Davies in the cutoff and Torensen on the button. Davies checked the flop and Torensen fired a bet of 30,000. Davies called.
Davies checked again on the 
turn and Torensen sized up to 55,000. Davies, with his face concealed by a grey baseball cap pulled over his eyes, used a time bank and called.
The 
river put quads on the board and Davies again used a time bank as he sat stoically in his chair. Eventually, he announced "all in," only to get snapped off by Sorensen. Davies tabled 
for the stone nuts with quad sixes and an ace kicker. But holding the nuts wasn't enough to earn Davies the pot as his Danish opponent also held the nuts with 
.
"That's one of three rivers where I don't have a hard decision," Davies said after the hand.
"It's funny: One of you is bluffing on the turn and the other is bluff-catching. Then you both have the nuts on the river!" laughed Gergely Kulcsar from the one seat. "It's fun to watch you guys."
"It was a fun hand," agreed Davies.
