Scott Lazar Doubles Up; Davood Mehrmand Avoids a Bad Beat

After a flop of {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}, Scott Lazar moves all in with {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a pair of queens, Davood Mehrmand folds, and one player calls with {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a pair sevens.

Davood Mehrmand claims he folded A-Q (which would have him in the lead), but he had a bad feeling because Lazar looked so strong when he pushed.

The turn card is the {2-Spades}, and the river card is the {10-Clubs}, giving Lazar the pot with two pair. (And if Mehrmand were still in the hand, he would have received a bad beat.)

Scott Lazar doubles up to about 8,500 in chips.
