Utt Utterly Destroys Opponent

We found Garrett Utt reraising preflop making it 6,000 to anyone who wanted to see a flop. The initial raiser the player on the button was the only one willing to shell out the chips and we were off to the flop.

On a {8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} board Utt continued his aggression and put a bet of 10,000 in the middle. His opponent wasted little time and moved all in. Utt immediately called and before we even knew it cards were being flipped, and chips were being sent.

Utt: {Q-}{Q-}
Button: {6-Spades}{7-Spades}

The player on the button was in disbelief and kept announcing to no one in particular "are you kidding me?". A {K-Clubs} turn gave Utt a stronger advantage, and a river {K-Spades} sealed the deal eliminating the button player.
