Queens Cruel to Lamontagne

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Michael Lamontagne moved all in preflop and Thomas Peebles called for less while the rest of the table folded. The two players tabled their cards, with Peebles at risk.

Thomas Peebles: {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Michael Lamontagne: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Although Lamontagne was way ahead on the flop of {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, the turn {k-Spades} was a gut punch as Peebles made Broadway. The river {8-Diamonds} changed nothing and Peebles scored a double up and Lamontagne was left with only 725,000.

The very next hand Lamontagne went all in again and was called by the chipleader Kyle Montgomery. But this time Montgomery was the one with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} while Lamontagne tabled {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

"Hey, maybe you'll hit a straight," someone at the table joked to Lamontagne.

The flop of {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} looked very familiar to Lamontagne, as he was looking for any king or ten to win, but the runout of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} did not do it for him and he was eliminated.
