Lawrence Doubles with Queens

Matt Lawrence got his stack of 69,500 all in preflop with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and was up against the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} of his opponent. It was a classic race, with last year's National Championship qualifier at risk. Such situations are usually pretty stressful for players, so we're sure Lawrence was relieved to see a third queen appear on the {2-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} flop. The {10-Clubs} turn and {2-Hearts} river changed nothing, and Lawrence doubled to a healthy 150,000.
