Jesse Lonis opened the hijack to 4,500 and Jules Dickerson called on the button. In the small blind, Mikael Thuritz three-bet to 20,000. Then, Leonard Maue shoved from the big blind for 81,000. The action folded back to Thuritz who put in the call.
Leonard Maue: K♥K♣ 
Mikael Thuritz: Q♦Q♣
Maue was in great shape to score a double up and it stayed that way on the 10♣9♦3♣ flop to the 5♠ turn. However, the dealer had other plans when the Q♥ fell on the river in dramatic fashion as Thuritz made top set to eliminate Maue.
