Lawson Movin' on Up

A player in early position led out for 625 preflop when the player in the cutoff raised to 2,800. The action then moved to Ted Lawson, on the button, who moved all-in for 3,875. The early position player folded while the cutoff made the call and showed A-K. Lawson turned over pocket queens, which held up, doubling his chip stack up to 8,700.
