Peter Lipton Lights Up Hans Pfister

Hans Pfister got his last 135,000 into the middle before the flop and Peter Lipton made the call to put him at risk.

Showdown:

Pfister: {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Lipton: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

Lipton had Pfister in bad shape with his pair of queens, and despite Pfsiter pairing on the flop of {J-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, Lipton took the pot when the turn and river came {5-Hearts} and {K-Spades}. He now sits with a little over 600,000 while Pfister hits the rail in 35th place.
