Thanks Peter Eastgate
I was going back through my 2009 database and saw this little gem that I hadn't talked about yet:
Yesterday, PeteEastgate was sitting at something like 8 25/50 tables on Stars. After confirming that this was the actual 2009 WSOP Champion and not some clever shark impersonating a tourney donk, I hopped on a few of the tables to try my luck. It was indeed trying:
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $50.00 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
SB ($5122)
BB ($7944)
UTG ($5223)
MP ($15570)
CO ($5000)
Hero (Button) ($5824)
Preflop: Hero is Button with 4
, 4
1 fold, MP bets $150, 1 fold, Hero calls $150, 2 folds
Flop: ($375) 2, 9, 4
(2 players)
MP checks, Hero checks
Turn: ($375) 9 (2 players)
MP checks, Hero bets $222, MP raises to $850, Hero calls $628
River: ($2075) 4
(2 players)
MP bets $14570 (All-In), Hero calls $4824 (All-In)
Total pot: $11723 | Rake: $3
Results:
Hero mucked 4, 4 (four of a kind, fours).
MP had 9, 9 (four of a kind, nines).
Outcome: MP won $11720
I've made four or five royal flushes in my lifetime, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've been on either end of quads vs. quads. The worst part is that it's actually pretty tough to put him on anything but better quads given the way he played it. Not that I'm about to lose sleep over paying off with quads, but still.

Heya! Good thought, but can this genuinely function?
