Renn's Queens Hold to More than Double Up

Level 11 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was joined with three all-in players with no community cards yet dealt. Jason Renn, in the cutoff was the middle stack, with the hijack being the short stack and a player from middle position having both players covered. The players tabled their hands.

Hijack: {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Jason Renn: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Middle Position: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Renn was well ahead, but an unfavorable board could have sent him to the rail. The {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Hearts} board proved quite favorable to Renn, whose pocket queens sent the hijack to the rail while doubling up via the player in middle position.
