Kihara's Queens Win

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Naoya Kihara checked from under the gun on {5-Clubs}{k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. His opponent on the button bet 7,000 into a pot of around 20,000. Kihara took some thinking time, double-checked his cards, then called.

"Ace-high," Kihara's opponent announced.

Kihara opened {q-}{q-} and took it down. A player across the table guessed that Kihara was thinking of raising and he smiled and admitted that may have been the case.
