Affleck Spikes Huge Card

We caught up just in time to see Matt Affleck all in for his tournament life holding {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} against a slightly shorter stack's {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and a bigger stack's {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

The flop was {3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and Afflect was searching for one of the two remaining queens to stay alive.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and he was one card away from elimination. The dealer pounded the table and flipped up the river.

It was the {Q-Diamonds}.

A quick fist pump reaction was all Affleck gave to the table. He instantly took to counting out his chips and was able to send the opponent holding kings to the rail. Affleck is currently sitting on about 37,000.
