Martini Spikes Quads to Take Out Two
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Three-handed on a flop of 8?K?9?, Sebastian Mortensen moved all in for 95,000 from the cutoff, Maximilian Klostermeier put in his last 60,000 from the button, and Julien Martini covered them both in middle position.
Maximilian Klostermeier: Q?J?10?6? 
Sebastian Mortensen: A?Q?6?6?
Julien Martini: 9?9?7?5?
Martini was ahead with his set of nines, while Klostermeier had a straight draw and Mortensen the nut flush draw. But both of them were left drawing dead after the 9? fell on the turn to give Martini quads. The river was the J? and Martini scooped the pot to send both opponents to the rail.
"Usually we say it's never easy, but this time," a tablemate told Martini after the hand.
