Bustout

He said it was only the third hand he played, but high stakes online player Arnaud Mattern is off for an early bath. Queens did all the damage in two separate hands. In the first hand he laid them down on a {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop and was delighted that his opponent showed him {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}.

Then, Mattern on the button with queens again, seeing a mid-position raiser made it 500 (blinds 75/150) with one caller, and then a re-raise to 1,500. He just called. He wasn't 100% about this call, but when the board came down 6-6-4 he faced a 3k bet and with only 5,500 left he went for it. He was against {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} and got no help.

Queens are my most hated hand too. :(
