The read

Matt's Q♥ Q♦ meets Gal's A♣ 6♣ on a 2♣ 6♥ 8♣ flop. Krish is involved too, calling Matt's $5,000 bet with pocket fives before Gal raises to $20,000. Matt moves all-in for $97,800. Krish folds and Gal calls, then they deal the turn and river twice. The first run ends 9♥ 9♠, giving Matt queens and nines against Gal's nines and sixes. The second ends Q♠ K♠, giving Matt three queens. No more clubs arrive on either run. Matt wins both halves of the $207,400 pot.
