Marcel Luske was sitting with an above average stack in front of him and he told the team what had happened.
"Someone raised to 400 and the player in the hijack three-bet to 1,300. I decided to flat with pocket nines. The initial raiser also called. The flop came three-six-eight, the first guy checked, the hijack bet 2,000, I raise to 7,000. The first guy folded, the hijack tank-shoved and I also went all in. He had queens for an overpair. The turn and the river were both nines so I had quads!"
