Viard Sends Stroke to the Rail
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
After Shawn Stroke opened to 3,000 from under the gun, Alexandre Viard called from the cutoff.
The dealer fanned a flop of 9♥5♣4♥, and Stroke bet 7,500. Viard quickly moved all in, and Stroke snap-called with his last 23,700 chips.
Shawn Stroke: 10♦10♠
Alexandre Viard: Q♥Q♣
Stroke didn't expect to see queens in Viard's hands. The 8♥ came on the turn and the Q♦ on the river, and Stroke was eliminated.
