Huntly Picks Off Another

Matthew Kirk raised to 3,500 from under the gun before Dennis Huntly reraised all in for 55,000. Huntly had Kirk covered, but Kirk did make the call for his last 20,600.

Kirk: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Huntly: {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}

Huntly was able to smack top pair, top kicker on the flop of {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. With two queens remaining in the deck, Kirk would need to catch one of them to stay alive. The turn and river were not what Kirk was looking for though, when the {5-Diamonds} and {2-Hearts} came off to end his day.
