Eric Varnado bet on a flop of K?6?2? and was called by Ben Vidal and Tomomitsu Ono.
The turn came the 6? and Varnado bet the rest of his chips. Vidal and Ono both called to the Q? river, where Vidal put out a bet. Ono tank-called and both players showed ace-king.
Varnado, though, had 8?6?6?2? for quad sixes as he tripled up.
"How did you like that turn card," Erik Perry asked him as Varnado found new life in the tournament.
