Good Call with Quads on Board

Brandon Paster raised to 10,500 in middle position and Kiril Rabtsov called as the next to act. Raymond Dehkarghani also joined the party from the small blind and all three players checked the {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {7-Spades} flop. Dehkarghani check-called a bet of 12,000 from Paster when the {7-Hearts} hit the turn with Rabtsov having folded in between them.

The river was the {7-Diamonds} and Dehkarghani checked again. Paster laid out a bet of 35,000 and Dehkarghani went into the tank. After several minutes of thought and cutting out chips, he eventually made the call and Paster said, “Good call” as he turned over {A-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades} for trip sevens with an ace-eight kicker. Dehkarghani revealed {A-} {K-} {Q-} {9-} for trips with a better ace-king kicker and was rewarded with the pot for his good call.
