Ware Spikes a Queen

Nick Becker

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

After an early position limp, Kenneth Ware raised to 3,400 in late position and Jeffrey Blenkarn three-bet shoved for 25,100 from the small blind, putting himself at risk. The initial limper got out of the way and Ware thought for a moment before eventually tossing in the call.

Jeffrey Blenkarn: A♥K♠ All in
Kenneth Ware: K♣Q♣

Ware drilled a queen on the 3♥J♠Q♠ flop, pulling ahead. The 2♠ turn and 3♣ river offered no help to Blenkarn and he was sent to the rail.
