Double Knockout for Maynard

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With 34,000 in the middle and the flop showing {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}, Bret Maynard and another player checked while Peter Malkoun was awaiting his fate, having been all in before the flop already. Maynard then bet the {A-Hearts} turn for 11,000 and the third player in the hand moved all in for 24,000, Maynard snap-called.

Peter Malkoun: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Third player: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Bret Maynard: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

Malkoun was already drawing dead and Maynard had only to fear the case seven in the deck. Instead, he got the case queen with the {Q-Hearts} on the river to score the double knockout with quads.
