With the board showing Qs10d3d2h on the turn and a little more than 100K already in the pot, James Romero moved all in from the small blind for about 155,000.

Chad Eveslage tanked for a while on the button before calling all in for 136,500 with Qc9c for a pair of queens. Romero turned over KxJs for an open-ended straight draw with one overcard, and Eveslage needed his pair to hold to stay alive.

The river card was the 6h, and Eveslage won the pot with his pair of queens to double up in chips.

Chad Eveslage  –  375,000  (94 bb)
James Romero  –  25,000  (6 bb)

Romero was eliminated a short while later.
