Godzdanker Can't Beat Khamatgareev's Queens
Level 8
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ravil Khamatgareev raised to 10,000 from the small blind, and Vadzim Godzdanker defended from the big blind.
Khamatgareev continued for 6,500 on the J♣7♣4♦ flop, and Godzdanker moved all in, putting Khamatgareev at risk. Khamatgareev called for his remaining 39,500, and the cards were turned over.
Ravil Khamatgareev: Q♣Q♦
Vadzim Godzdanker: 6♠5♠
Khamatgareev's queens were ahead of Godzdanker's open-ended straight draw.
The 2♥ turn and K♥ river changed nothing, and Khamatgareev doubled to just shy of the starting stack.
