Steven Wakes Up with the Ladies

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Brandon Steven moved all in under the gun and was called by Tom Marchese from the small blind. After the big blind folded, the cards were turned up:

Marchese: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Steven: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

Steven was ahead and looking to dodge an ace, a feat he accomplished as the board ran out {5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}. Steven doubled to 245,000 on the hand while Marchese dropped to 145,000.
