Queen-High Good for Peloquin Against Madsen

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jeff Madsen
Jeff Madsen

Jeff Madsen limped in from the button and was joined in the pot by the small blind and Richard Peloquin, who was in the big blind.

Peloquin led out for 3,500 on the A?8?5? flop before Madsen raised to 11,100. The small blind folded but Peloquin called.

The 5? turn and the K? river checked through to showdown.

"You win; I was on a draw," said Peloquin as he tabled his Q?2?, which was good for just queen-high.

However, Madsen slid his cards into the muck and Peloquin took in the pot to his surprise.
