Meyer Doubles Through Hughes with Quads

Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

A big hand took place at Table 15 where Vincent Meyer was all in for 1,100,000 against the bigger-stacked Daniel Hughes on a flop of 8?5?8?.
Vincent Meyer: 5?5?
Daniel Hughes: J?J?
"I've got a full house," Meyer said as he revealed fives full.
"I can hit an eight!" Hughes said before the 5? hit on the turn to give Meyer quads. "No I can't!"
Hughes was drawing dead heading to the 4? river and he secured a big double.
"Alright, I'll take 14th place," Hughes said grimly. "I'm not afraid to bust."
