Popal Picks Up Queens to Double
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Ahmad Popal got his last 990,000 in the middle from the button and was up against Sam Stein in middle position.
Ahmad Popal: Q?Q?
Sam Stein: 9?9?
Stein didn't find any help on the 10?2?3? flop, while the Q? turn left him drawing dead as Popal made top set. The inconsequential river was the 7? and Popal doubled up.
