Queen-High? No Problem — Neilson Calls It Right

Kim Wah Chiu opened the cutoff to 5,000 and Daniel Neilson called on the button.
Chiu checked the flop of 7♥ 3♦ 8♠ to Neilson who bet 4,000. Chiu tagged along.
The 7♠ came on the turn and it went check-check.
When the 8♣ hit on the river, Chiu fired out 9,000.
“I really don’t know,” said Neilson while taking a look at his opponent. After a while, he made the call.
Chiu tabled J♥ 9♠ for jack-high facing off against the queen-high from Neilson’s Q♥ T♣
“Queen high, nice call,” praised Chiu.
