David Tashman Doubles Through Jamel Maistriaux

Jamel Maistriaux limped in under the gun and action folded to David Tashman in late position. Tashman pushed for his whole stack of about 30,000 and Maistriaux made the call. The players showed:

Maistriaux: {A-Clubs} {A-Spades}
Tashman: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}

The flop came {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {9-Clubs} giving Tashman the lead in the hand. The turn came the {4-Diamonds}, a relative blank, and the river fell the {10-Clubs}. Tashman's three queens were best and he doubled up to 66,000 leaving Maistriaux with just under 46,000 chips.
