Wei's Quads Get Value

Three men intently playing poker at a table with chips and cards.

Shen Bo Yu opened for 250,000 from middle position and found two callers, button player Kai Lin Wei and small blind Andy Tsai. 

Yu continued for 300,000 at the flop of 3 ♠️ 8 ♠️ 8 ♣️. Only Wei stuck around to see the turn 9 ♥️ where Yu slowed down and checked.

Wei took charge with a bet of 1,000,000 and Yu called after using up a time chip. The pot bloated further on the river 8 ♦️ with Wei betting 3,000,000, well over half of Yu's stack. Yu called the big bet then mucked when Wei turned over the nuts Q ♥️ 8 ♥️ quads.
