Big-O

"Wow, hand of the century," said Allen Kessler, as a big pot was brewing at his table.

The flop was {Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and a three-way all-in developed.

Mike Leah: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Opponent 1: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Opponent 2: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

Leah was in the lead with queens and sixes, although one of his opponents was drawing to a better low.

The turn was the {7-Hearts}, counterfeiting Leah's lead as one of his opponents made aces up to pull ahead. However, the river was the {6-Clubs}, giving Leah sixes full of queens to double through one opponent for 6,400 and eliminate the other.

"You'll tell your kids where you were when the hand of the century went down," said Matt Vengrin to the rest of the table.
