Laak Chiu-s 'Em Up and Spits 'Em Out

It was heads up between Phil Laak and David Chiu as the duo watched the flop come down {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Laak, who was in the big blind, bet out and Chiu called from the cutoff. Both players then checked the {10-Clubs} turn, and Laak bet out on the {6-Hearts} river.

Chiu thought long and hard before making the call, only to much when Laak rolled over {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}.
