The under-the-gun player opened to 5,000 and the player in the hijack seat shoved for his remaining 20,700 chips. Joseph LeGer called and the initial preflop aggressor moved all-in for 33,200 total.
LeGer seemed in pain over the decision and felt he was surely beat but made a crying call for another 12,500 only to receive the best news.
Hijack:
Under the gun:
Joseph LeGer:
If the spot wasn't perfect enough, the flop came to give LeGer quads and increase his stack to 110,000 while most of the players at the table burst into laughter.
The hijack raised to 3,000, Joe Siggafoos called from the cutoff, as did Michael Muniz from the small blind and the player in the big.
The flop came and Muniz led for 7,000. The big blind shoved for 4,000 and both Siggafoos and Muniz called.
Both players checked the turn and river and Siggafoos tabled . Muniz flashed a before folding and the big blind also could not beat the pair and was eliminated.
