Thesing Wins the Race to Double Up
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Justin Lett raised to 4,000 from under the gun, and Matthew Thesing three-bet all in for 16,700. It folded back to Lett who made the call to put Thesing at risk.
Matthew Thesing: Q?J? 
Justin Lett: 7?7?
Thesing would need win a flip for his tournament life, with Lett ahead with his pocket sevens. But after the board ran out Q?K?Q?A?K? Thesing improved to a full house, queens full of kings to get the double up.
