Schleger Finds Queens... Twice

A monstrous encounter between Roy Winston and Shane Schleger, spanning two hands -- during hand-for-hand play, that's an epic.

Hand 1:

Winston raised to 4,000 and Schleger made it 12,000. Winston eventually folded, claiming queens -- and was vindicated when Schleger showed aces.

Hand 2:

Winston raised to 4,200 and again Schleger reraised to 13,200 behind. This time Winston re-potted, and Schleger called all in.

Winston: {K-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds}
Schleger: {Q-Clubs} {Q-?}

Board: {2-Spades} {6-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {5-Clubs}

Winston down to 19,000 Schleger up to 85,000.
