Sitbon Scores a Double with "Lady Gaga"

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

There was a raise to 1,100 in early position and Andrew Swenson three-bet to 3,300 on his left. Julien Sitbon shipped all in for 8,900 on the button and Ren Lin flat-called from the big blind. The rest of the table folded and the two hands were tabled.

Julien Sitbon: Q?Q?
Ren Lin: 9?9?

"Ahh, Lade Gaga," Lin said to Sitbon. "What are you scared of? Maybe Lady Gaga no good on Monday."

The board ran out 10?5?4?3?2? and Sitbon's pocket queens turned out to be just fine in order to score a double-up.
