Rimamaaki Doubles

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jane Peters limped into the pot from under the gun plus one as did Ia Rimamaaki from middle position. Joachim Chia then raised it up to 3,100 from the cut off which was enough to force Peters out. Rimamaaki took one last look down at his cards before moving all in for his last 4,900 in chips. Chia made the call and both players tabled their cards.

Chia: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Rimamaaki: {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Rimamaaki was in trouble until the board ran out {3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} to give him trip queens and the winning hand.

Despite losing this hand, Chia is up to six figures and looking strong.
