Miracle Queen On the River For Shaffer

With a few raises in front of him, a player in the cutoff shoved all in for about 90,000 and Brett Shaffer in middle position re-shoved all in and got a fold to go heads up.

The cutoff player showed {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Shaffer had {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The flop was bad for Shaffer and came {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs} to give the cutoff trip fives. The turn was the {4-Diamonds} which changed nothing, but the river was the {Q-Spades} to give Shaffer the full house and send the player to the rail.

Shaffer continues to grow his monster stack and has about 350,000.
