Right after hectic months in Las Vegas (USA), many players have recently been heading to the other side of the United States. This is because in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the Borgata casino is hosting the Borgata Summer Poker Open. And right in the first actions, a quadruple all-in stopped the room.

The hand took place on Day 1E of the Deep Stack Kickoff, with a $600 buy-in and a $1 million guarantee. The mere fact that four players put everything in play already caught attention, but the showdown caused even more shock. Not satisfied, the deck still brought combinations from the flop to the river.
The complete action of the quadruple all-in
The action was on the seventh level, with blinds 400/800. John Dorsey started with a miniraise from UTG, and immediately to his left, Ben Weaver shoved 19,800. Daniel Leahy had 19,700 behind and announced the call, and everyone folded until the action reached Kole Lekic, in the small blind, who also called with his 10,100 chips.
When the action returned to Dorsey, he covered the opponents, but with little advantage. Still, he opted to call, forming the quadruple all-in. At the showdown, Lekic showed KK, Leahy presented JJ, Weaver showed QQ, and Dorsey revealed A4 of spades.

The bizarre cooler got even crazier when the flop showed KJ7 with two hearts. Lekic increased the advantage he had pre-flop, although Leahy also made a set, and the situation remained after the 9 of clubs on the turn.
Excitement until the last card
Proving that those involved would not have peace throughout the hand, the river showed the Q of diamonds, also giving a set to Weaver. With that, the player beat Leahy in the set battle of Q versus set of J, pulling a total of 59,500 in the side pots and eliminating the opponent.
As for Lekic, the hand winner with a set of Ks, he quadrupled his stack, reaching 42,300. Dorsey, the initial aggressor of the hand, hit nothing and was left with a very short stack, being eliminated moments later.
