Queens Reign for Pearljammer

On a flop of {6-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, the dealer raised the "All-In" paddle aloft, indicating a player had all his chips in the middle.

Jon "Pearljammer" Turner had his opponent covered. His opponent showed {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}. Unfortunately for him, Turner had {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for quad queens.

The {K-Clubs} on the turn made things interesting, but the river {2-Clubs} meant we had another first-level elimination. Turner is now up to 37,000.
