'The Grinder' Doubles Through Selbst

[user38449]
[user38449]
Michael Mizrachi has just doubled through Vanessa Selbst after his pocket queens were able to fend off Selbst's club flush draw.

The pair got it all in on a flop of {2-Clubs} {2-Spades} {6-Clubs}; Mizrachi with {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts} and Selbst with {A-Clubs} {4-Clubs}. Needing an ace or a club to finish Mizrachi off, Vanessa watched the turn and river blank out {8-Diamonds}, {9-Spades} giving the pot and the chip lead to Mizrachi.

After the hand, Vanessa was left with 140,000 in chips to Mizrachi's 500,000.
