Riehl Eliminates an Opponent

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

The pot was around 1,900 when the dealer fanned a flop of {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Spades} that was checked around to the {3-Diamonds} turn. Calvin Anderson bet 1,800 from the small blind and the hijack called along with Ludovic Riehl on the cutoff.

The {j-Clubs} filled up the river and Anderson opted to check. The hijack moved all in for 4,600 and Riehl quickly called but Anderson folded.

The hijack tabled {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for eights full of queens but that wasn't good enough as Rihl revealed {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for jacks full of queens to win the pot, sending his opponent to the exit.
