Tim West - Event #34

We caught up to this hand on the turn. With the board reading {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{7-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{2-Spades}

and decent pile of chips already in the pot, Tim West led out from under the gun for 1,650. His lone opponent, playing from the cutoff seat, put in a min-raise and made it 3,300 to play.

West made the call and the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

hit the river. West checked and the cutoff seat bet 3,000. West raised to 10,000 and his opponent called all in. The players showed:

West: {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

Opponent:

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

West's set of queens were good and he trimmed the field by one and took his stack to just shy of 30,000 on the hand.
