When we last saw Philip Neiman, the Queensbridge native was happily discussing the terms of a chop to win Event 1 of the Borgata Spring Poker Open. Neiman is here today looking to take down another title, with a recent double up putting him squarely among the average stacks.

After the hijack opened to 12,000, Neiman three-bet shoved for his last 65,500, with his opponent quickly making the call.

Neiman: {A-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Hijack: {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Both players held queens in the hole, but in fitting fashion, the board rolled out {8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} to give the proud Queens native queens up, and the double up to boot.
