The abandoned stack of Seat 2

According to the table, action was limped nine ways preflop and the dealer burned and turned a Jx4x3x board. A shortstack got all-in while an unknown player in Seat 2 got all-in for more. Andy Leadbetter and Carl Carodenuto called. The complete action is unclear, but here’s how the hands broke down:

Seat 2: JxJx for top set
Leadbetter: 4x4x for middle set
Carodenuto: 3x3x for bottom set
All-in player: JxXx for top pair

With that, it was set versus set versus set versus top pair. The set of jacks held, the shortstack busted and the player in Seat 2 raked a pot worth about 150,000 chips. He promptly stood from the table and has not returned.
