Alex Queen

In another hand that ran over into the break, Galen Hall (sb) moved in on the turn with a board reading {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Hearts}. Alex Queen (button) tanked, then opened to call, having Hall covered.

Hall tabled {k-}{q-Hearts} for a flush draw with gutshot. Queen was way ahead with {a-Spades}{10-Hearts} for trip aces. The river was a brick and Hall was eliminated (101st for $6,784).

One for McKeehen

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The flop read {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and both Patrick Kelly in the big blind and Joe McKeehen on the button checked through to the {k-Hearts} on the turn.

Kelly bet 20,000 and McKeehen called to see the {q-Diamonds} complete the board. They both checked again. Kelly tabled {a-Clubs}{6-Spades} for ace-high but McKeehen held {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for the flopped pair of sevens to pick up the pot.
