Valdez Has It
Level 4
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
The board read 7♣Q♣Q♦J♦ when Arlen Sarte led for 3,500 into the pot of around 8,500. His heads-up opponent, Juan Valdez, then raised him to 11,000, which he called after taking a few seconds to think it over.
On the river 2♣, the action went check-check and Valdez showed K♦Q♠ for trip queens, prompting a quick fold from Sarte to award him the pot.
