Kiwi G Follows Tony G's Lead

From the button, Steve Topakis puts in a big raise to 3,000. Sitting in the big blind -- and with a price on his head -- Graeme "Kiwi G" Putt moves all in. Topakis calls, and the cards are rolled over.

Topakis: {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}
Putt: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

The flop comes {J-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}, giving Topakis a few more outs to the straight. Sure enough, he drills the {10-Clubs} on the turn, improving to the nut straight and leaving Putt dead to a chop. The river is a useless {5-Clubs}, and Topakis claims Putt's bounty.
