Smirnov's Queens Pull Through
Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Javier Zarco was in late position and raised to 1,000,000 and Anton Smirnov was in the cutoff and announced, "All in". Zarco took his time and calculated everyone's chip stacks before he made the call for 8,925,000.
Anton Smirnov: Q?Q?
Javier Zarco: A?5?
The board ran out 5?10?9?2?4? and the queens survived to give Smirnov a much needed boost in chips.
