Queens vs. Big Slick

Thomas Conway got his stack of 210,000 all in preflop with {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and was up against the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} of Thomas Conway. With a juicy 415,000 pot on the line, a few players stood from their seats and the media gathered round. It was a tense moment, one that was somewhat anticlimactic as the board ran out a rather dull {5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

Nonetheless, it was the exact result Conway wanted as he doubled his stack.
