Wilshire Has the Better Queen, Eliminates Uppal

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Varun Uppal moved all in from middle position for 156,000. Action folded all the way to Beau "Don K. Nado" Wilshire in the big blind who made the call.

Varun Uppal: {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Beau "Don K. Nado" Wilshire: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Uppal had kicker problems, but flopped some hope on the {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} board. Looking for an open-ender now, the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} turn and river left Uppal felted and heading to the rail while Wilshire collected the pot.
