Queens Don't Help Yaghmai
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
After some raising back and forth, Nariman Yaghmai and the player in the hijack got all of the chips into the middle, creating a pot worth around 260,000, with the hijack player at risk.
Hijack: K♥K♠
Nariman Yaghmai: Q♠Q♣
It was a cooler involving two of the biggest pairs in the deck, and Yaghmai needed to find a queen or be left with just a few big blinds.
No lady arrived for Yaghmai on the 5♠A♥3♥3♦8♣ runout, and the majority of his stack was shipped across the table.
