Minieri's Queen High Is Good

We caught up with the action to see Dario Minieri bet out 6,000 on a board of {k-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and his opponent made the call. With about 19,000 in the pot, Minieri's opponent checked to him. Minieri announced that he was all in for his remaining roughly 52,000 in chips.

His opponent had him covered and pondered a call for a while. Eventually his opponent mucked and Minieri was awarded the pot.

"Show a bluff, it's good for the game", the player to Minieri's right said.

"Alright", Minieri replied, complying with his request by tabling the {Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. His opponent could only shake his head as Minieri stacked his chips.
