Griffiths Gives Up Queens

Kirk Brown

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jeffrey Griffiths opened to 11,000 from middle position but was then three-bet by San Vong in the small blind to 65,000. Griffiths thought about it for a second and then made the call to see a flop of 6♦A♠10♦.

Vong then immediately slid out a bet of 85,000 and Griffiths looked like he was going to call but instead tossed in his cards face up to show Q♣Q♦. Vong then showed him it was the proper laydown and tabled A♥K♦.
