Queens for Francis

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

With the board reading {3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and the pot swelling over the 45,000-chip mark, we found Philipp Gruissem pushing out a stack of yellow 1,000-denomination chips amounting to a bet of 23,000.

His lone opponent in the hand - Patrick Francis - went deep into the tank before making the call.

The river landed the {3-Diamonds} and both players quickly checked as Francis tabled his {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} to win the pot and move to 165,000 while Guissem slipped to 90,000 in chips.
