Johnson Dodges the Queen

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jim Lawrence bet 5,500 into two opponents with the board reading {9-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{a-Spades}. The button shoved all in for about 60,000, and the big blind, Steve Johnson, moved in as well for 42,550. Lawrence thought for a couple of minutes before mucking.

Johnson: {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Button: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

"Give me a queen," the button said.

"No queen," Johnson said, drawing a deep breath and standing up.

Johnson's wish was granted when a king river gave the button a worthless two pair.
