Big Stax 300 (Day 1C): Straight Quadruple

Level 8 (Blinds 400/800/100 ante)
1C Entries: 743 (1625 total)


McCarty Miracle

We hear a lot of commotion in the Clubhouse and when we get to the table we hear Eric McCarty say, "I have a straight," and in fact he does as he knocks out three players.

McCarty says he was the last to call three all-ins with Q♣ J♣ and is against TT, JJ & A♣ 8♣.

The board shows K-9-3-T-A and as the player with pocket Tens momentarily celebrates his set on the turn, it gives McCarty the straight.

All four players have between 10k and 15k with McCarty getting more than a quadruple-up.

"I figured I only have 15k, I either re-enter (if he lost) or quadruple-up," say McCarty who summarizes the hand on Twitter.
