Adams Bounces Back with Queens

Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Jean-Noel Thorel raised 3,500 in the hijack, and Niklas Astedt called in the cutoff before Timothy Adams three-bet 15,000 on the button. Thorel got out of the way, and Astedt made the call.
The dealer spread a flop of K?3?2?, and Astedt check-called a continuation bet of 9,500.
The 7? fell on the turn, and once checked to, Adams continued for another bet of 17,000. Astedt made the call.
When the A? completed the board, both players knuckled the table. Astedt tabled 8?8?, which was no good as Adams showed Q?Q?.
