Queen-High Isn't Good

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

On a board of 2♦2♥J♣7♠8♦ with 75,000 in the pot, Thomas Rayssiguier in the small blind moved all-in for roughly 65,000.

Giuseppe Grupposo in the big blind went deep into the tank. He eventually called off his last 58,000 but ran into Rayssiguier's Q♦Q♥.

Grupposo mucked his cards but the dealer flipped them over to reveal Q♣9♥ for queen-high. His opponents looked pretty surprised as Grupposo was leaving the table.
