You're Not My Buddy Guy

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Matt Cooper just played a big hand against Guy Maxtone-Graham, with the latter's {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} coming out on top.

Maxtone-Graham limped in with his ladies, and according to him the play was designed to induce a shove from a short-stacked player next to act. The ploy worked to perfection and that player did shove, with Cooper getting involved as well with {K-}{9-}.

When it was all said and done, the final board read {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades} to give Maxtone-Graham a full house, and he doubled through and then some to pad his stack.
