Level 8

and action checked to the three-bettor in the hijack, who made a continuation-bet of 15,000. Craig thought for a bit and then check-shoved. The player in middle position folded and then the hijack called.
Benjamin Craig: 
Hijack: 
Craig's queens were out in front and remained there as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout to earn him the double.
