Klinger Finds Queens at the Perfect Time
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Marc Klinger shoved the button for 79,000 and Claudio Di Giacomo gave him a spin from the big blind.
Marc Klinger: Q♦Q♥
Claudio Di Giacomo: J♥10♠
Klinger had woken up with a premium pocket pair on the soft bubble and just had to fade an unfortunate runout to double.
Klinger had Di Giacomo drawing dead by the turn on the 4♦6♥K♠4♠2♣ runout, and he doubled at the expense of Di Giacomo.
