Joshua Mccully raises to 105,000 from under the gun and Kyle Bao Diep three-bets to 310,000 in the cutoff. Nicholas Wang four-bets to 790,000 on the button and Amit Kaushik in the big blind uses one time bank before five-betting to 1,200,000.

Mccully and Diep fold while Wang reluctantly calls.

On the Club 5Heart 4Diamond 4 flop, Kaushik bets just 150,000 for Wang to call before Kaushik checks the Heart 8 turn. Wang bets 300,000 and Kaushik calls.

The Heart A river then kills any further action as they both check.

Kaushik tables Heart KDiamond K and Wang shakes his head. “Queens?” he asks and Wang nods.

Amit Kaushik – 8,000,000 (160 bb)
Joshua Mccully – 3,800,000 (76 bb)
Kyle Bao Diep – 2,500,000 (50 bb)
Nicholas Wang – 560,000 (11 bb)
