Queen Flops Three Queens
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Alex Queen jammed his final 81,000m from the button and was snapped off by Aaron Mermelstein in the big blind.
Alex Queen: Q♣10♣
Aaron Mermelstein: K♥K♣
Mermelstein woke up with a premium against Queen. However, the Q♠Q♥2♥ flop gave Queen trip queens to vault him into the lead. The board ran out J♥6♠ and he doubled in incredible fashion.
