Goldkind Rebounds With a Double

Well, it didn't take Cliff Goldkind long to get his chips back. Goldkind opened with a preflop raise and Adria Balaguer moved all in, having Goldkind covered. Goldkind called for around 400,000 total, and the cards went on their backs.

Balaguer: {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Goldkind: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

Oops. Balaguer's light three-bet was picked off by Goldkind, but the Spaniard was still drawing live with his undercards. The {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{10-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} board gave Goldkind a bit of a sweat on the turn but he was able to secure the double with his trip queens. Balaguer, meanwhile, is among the short stacks after holding the chip lead less than an hour ago.
