... And Ace-Queen Giveth Back

On the very next hand, Antonio Esfandiari opened to 51,000 and Amit Makhija moved all in for 277,000 total. Esfandiari quickly called with {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades}, and Makhija rolled over the same ace-queen, {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} this time.

Things were a little friendlier to Makhija this time as the dealer saved his tournament life, running out a board of {8-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {J-Clubs}.

A pair of queens is good this time, and Makhija is back to 596,000.
