Torres Runs Into Queens
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Sergio Torres raised to 425,000 from early position as action folded to Jose Aguilera in the small blind who three-bet to 1,500,000. Torres then pushed his entire stack forward and Aguilera called.
Sergio Torres: 9♦9♣
Jose Aguilera: Q♣Q♠
Torres found out he was crushed by Aguilera's queens and needed a miracle, but none arrived on the 5♥10♦7♣10♣7♦ board. The stacks were counted down and Torres had 8,200,000 remaining. Aguilera had him covered by about 400,000 and a teary-eyed Torres went off to commiserate with his supporters on the rail.
