Qian Raises the River With a Boat
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Methavee Taveekitvatee opened to 3,000 from middle position and called a three-bet of 10,000 from Yingjie Qian, who was in the cutoff.
Both players checked on the Q♠10♠Q♥ flop and A♦ turn, but Taveekitvatee then led out for 30,000 after the 8♣ completed the board.
Qian paused, and then stuck in a raise to 60,000, turning a modest-sized pot into a massive one. Taveekitvatee sat back in her seat and tanked a bit, but eventually looked up Qian, who turned over A♣A♠ for aces-full of queens.
Taveekitvatee sent her cards into the muck and Qian was sent the pot.
