Rolled Up Queens for Baker

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Baker: {X-}{X-} / {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Luske: {X-}{X-} / {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Leah: {X-}{X-} / {7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Seat 7: {X-}{X-} / {6-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} - fold

After the bring-in was posted, Mike Leah and Seat 7 limped in, Michael Baker completed, Marcel Luske called, and Leah and Seat 7 called as well. Luske checked fourth street, Leah checked, Seat 7 checked, Baker bet and everyone called.

On fifth street, everyone checked to Baker who bet again. This time, Seat 7 opted out, while Luske and Leah stuck around. On sixth street, Baker gained the betting lead with a pair of tens and he kept firing. Luske folded instantly and Leah folded after some thought.

It turned out to be a good decision for both players, as Baker flipped over {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for a monstrous rolled up queens.
