Vaczo's Queens Good on Dicey Runout
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Andras Vaczo raised to 900 from under the gun and Marcello Miniucchi three-bet to 3,000 from the next seat. When the action got back to Vaczo, he called.
A 2♠7♦9♦ flop hit the felt and Vaczo checked it over to Miniucchi, who fired a continuation-bet of 2,500. Vaczo called.
When the 6♥ dropped on the turn, Vaczo tapped the table for a second time and Miniucchi kept on firing with a bet of 6,500. Vaczo took a little longer than he did on the flop, but did eventually called.
The 8♠ on the river made the board much dicier and after Vaczo checked for a third time, Miniucchi elected to knuckle back. Vaczo then flipped Q♣Q♦ for a pair of queens, and Miniucchi mucked.
