Folding Queens is (Not) an Option

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

On the river of a board {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{J-Hearts}{A-Hearts}, Julien Sitbon checked in the big blind and David Urban shoved for 31,000 into a pot of double of that. Sitbon folded after some table chat, but during the same hand there were two other clashes on different tables.

The flop of {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} saw Javier Zarco and Michel Chen both invest 22,500 before the {7-Diamonds} turn was checked by Zarco in the blinds. Chen checked behind and then faced the shove of the Spaniard on the {7-Hearts} river. Chen tried some table chat and eventually folded {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} face up.

And then there was the open shove of Eric Le Goff on the button against two short stacks. Mikael Guenni called in the small blind for 25,000 and the big blind folded.

Le Goff had {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Guenni doubled with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} on a board of {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.
