Kaplan Cracks Queens
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Matthew Kaplan, in middle position and the player on the button.
With about 70,000 in the pot and the board reading 10♥K♠9♠Q♥3♠, Kaplan led out with a bet of 35,000.
After some consideration, the button reluctantly flicked in the call and showed QxQx, for a set of queens.
Kaplan tabled A♣J♣ for the nut straight, and scooped the pot.
