Angelo Valdez

Kevin Goldstein moved all in from late position and Angelo Valdez called from the small blind. Valdez was at risk.

Valdez: KcKd
Goldstein: QcQd

Goldstein, who previously doubled through Valdez’s queens, joked about good he was running. The flop fell 9s7s5h.

“I’m running really well right now,” Goldstein said. “The queen’s coming on the turn or river.”

He was wrong about the 7h turn, but smacked the Qh river improving him to a set and earning himself the pot. Valdez was eliminated in seventh place good for a $2,165 score.
