Vogdes Dodges Two Bullets, Queen Can't

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Joseph Lebrun opened to 2,000 from late position, and table short stack Blake Vogdes went into the tank. Sat in the cutoff, he took around a minute before deciding to lay his hand down. Button player Alex Queen moved all in, the blinds folded, and Lebrun snapped the bet off.

Alex Queen: A♣9♣ All in
Joseph Lebrun: A♠A♦

Vogdes celebrated upon seeing that he had avoided Lebrun's hand, and the 8♠5♠K♦8♣3♣ runout had Queen dead on the turn.
