Poker Gods Save the Queen

...Although in fairness, he was very much ahead.

We arrived just in time to see Kent Vanho and Alexander Queen turn their cards over, Queen all in for his tournament life.

Queen: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Vanho: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Board: {2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Queen doubled to around 350,000.

Next hand it folded to Vanho in the small blind, who shoved into Queen's big blind. Queen folded, though, and we remain 15.
