Jody Evans Folds Queens Preflop

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Arthur Voskanyan had a short stack and was all in and there was a raise from first Robert Cheung and then Jody Evans before Cheung re-raised.

Evans had a fair chunk of his stack in the middle but was agonising over his decision before opting to fold his {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}face up.

Cheung: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Voskanyan: {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Voskanyan rivered a straight to double up while conversation was still focused on whether folding queens in that spot was correct.

Evans had the last word on the subject though, “Still alive eh boys?”
