Trailblazer Tour Season II

Can Aces Survive a Four-Way All-In

Written by Kyle | Sep 27, 2025 3:42:38 AM

All hell just broke loose on table 16.

On blinds of 1,000/2,000/2,000, Qadir Zazay opened to 4,000 UTG and Cavin Ehia three-bet to 11,000 right behind Zazay UTG+1. Action folded around to Duc Nguyen on the button, who went all-in for 19,000. Timothy Carroll also went all-in for 20,000 from the big blind.

Action finally got back to Zazay UTG. He called the all-ins. Ehia then went all-in for a little less than 100,000. Zazay called.

Ehia: A♥A♠
Zazay: J♥J♦
Carroll: 9♥9♣
Nguyen: Q♥Q♦

Board: J♣6♣5♥9♦5♣

Like a scene out of Casino Royale, the deck delivered an unreal four-way all-in that didn't slow down. The flop came jack-high for Zazay to take the lead with a set of jacks. Carroll turned a set of nines and it felt like someone was destined to hit the river. The 5♣ paired the board on the river instead.

Zazay just eliminated three players and the tournament directors were forced to balance tables.
