Queen Shows his Nerve; Makhija Doubles

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Alex Queen called with second pair.
Alex Queen called with second pair.

We found Alex Queen facing an all-in bet from an opponent after all the cards were out, with the board reading {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Queen dropped a tower of yellow chips in the middle after thinking for a bit.

"You've got me," his opponent said. Queen tabled {a-Spades}{j-Clubs} after his opponent showed {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a busted combo draw.

At a nearby table, Amit Makhija got it all in with {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and held up against an opponent with {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} to double through.
