Alcindor Turns Quads to Triple Up
Niveau 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Alemu Makonen raised to 80,000 from the hijack. Christopher Alcindor three-bet to roughly 300,000 from the small blind and Ryan Hughes cold-called from the big blind. Makonen then four-bet to 1,120,000. Alcindor put in his last 200,000 chips and Hughes made the call as well. The three players went to the flop with Alcindor being all-in.
Hughes checked the A♥3♣9♠ flop. Makonen moved all-in for 600,000 and Hughes made the call.
Christopher Alcindor: A♠A♣Q♦7♣ 
Alemu Makonen: K♥K♣6♠6♥
Ryan Hughes: Q♠J♦10♦8♠
The turn came the A♦ improving Alcindor to quads and an inconsequential 5♠ came on the river. Alcindor would triple up with quads, and Makonen won the side pot with a pair of kings.
