Willerson Doubles Through Henderson

Neil Willerson opened to 175,000 first to act and action folded over to Hugh Henderon in the small blind, who three-bet to 400,000. It was folded back over to Willerson, who made the call.

Flop: {8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Henderson led out for 450,000 and was met with an immediate all-in for just over one million by Willerson. Henderson called and hands were revealed.

Willerson: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Henderson: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Both players had caught a queen, however, Willerson had Henderson out-kicked and was in great shape to double. The {8-Clubs} turn and {3-Clubs} river kept Willerson in the lead and he doubled up.

Henderson is down to his last 450,000.
