To the Max

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

We just witnessed another amazing hand for Max Droege, who has flown all the way from Canada just to play in this event.

Majid Noubarian opened for 2,200, Droege raised to 4,600 and Vladimir Volov called. Action was now on Ali Baskan who moved all in forcing Noubarian to fold. Droege however went all in too and was excitedly out of his seat. Baskan told him to sit down as the dealer checked the bets. Back to Volov, and what was his decision? All in, and we had a three way all in.

Baskan had {A-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, Droege tabled {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and finally Volov showed the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

“One time.” Said Droege, using his one time. “Give me a queen.”

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. Droege got his wish, busted two players and is now sitting on a stack of over 160,000.
