Quad Aces are Good
Daniel Alaei, Anthony Grappo, and Dimitar Danchev got all the biscuits in the middle preflop. Both Grappo and Alaei were short, but Grappo had Alaei covered. Danchev had both players at risk.
Alaei: 
Danchev: 
Grappo: 
There was an ace on the 
flop, another on the turn (
), and - why not - the case ace (
) fell on the river to give Alaei quads and the triple-up. Danchev scooped the side pot, eliminating Grappo, and the stacks looked like this after the dust settled:
