Calderon Loses the Minimum with Queens
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Leon Sturm raised to 240,000 from under the gun with K♥8♥ and Albert Calderon just called in the hijack with Q♠Q♦. They went heads-up to a flop of K♦4♦2♥ and both players checked to the 8♣ on the turn.
Both players checked again and the A♣ landed on the river. Sturm finally led out with a bet of 600,000 and Calderon denounced how poorly he played his hand before sending his pocket queens into the muck.
