Targa Dodges the World

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 12,000 ante

Rainer Rockenstein limped in from the small blind and Petr Targa raised it up in the big blind. Rockenstein called and the dealer spread the flop of {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Rockenstein checked to Targa who continued with a bet and Rockenstein check-raised all in. Targa called off his stack of 20,400 and the cards were face up.

Petr Targa: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Rainer Rockenstein: {9-Spades}{6-Spades}

Targa currently held the best hand with a pair of queens but Rockenstein had plenty of outs to hit with a pair, straight draw, and flush draw. The {8-Diamonds} paired the board on the turn and the {j-Hearts} bricked off on the river to give Targa a double up.
