Adams Bounces Back with Queens
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel raised 3,500 in the hijack, and Niklas Astedt called in the cutoff before Timothy Adams three-bet 15,000 on the button. Thorel got out of the way, and Astedt made the call.
The dealer spread a flop of K♥3♦2♠, and Astedt check-called a continuation bet of 9,500.
The 7♣ fell on the turn, and once checked to, Adams continued for another bet of 17,000. Astedt made the call.
When the A♣ completed the board, both players knuckled the table. Astedt tabled 8♥8♠, which was no good as Adams showed Q♣Q♦.
