Newman's Bluff Gets Picked Off By Javier

Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
There were around 150,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9?2?5?8? when Kevin Javier bet 45,000 on the turn. Michael Newman then min-raised to 90,000, and Javier called.
On the 4? river, Javier checked, Newman fired 120,000, and Javier called.
Newman tabled K?Q? for just king-high, but Javier held the winner with Q?Q? with a pair of queens.
