The River Doth Giveth and Taketh Away

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

When we hear a whole table yell, "Ohh, ouch!" we usually go running to see what happened. Well, we just heard that exact thing from Table 47 and hurried over.

The board showed {6-Clubs} {2-Spades} {2-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} and we gathered from the other players at the table that all the money went in on the turn. Jim Baker held pocket queens and was standing to leave before the dealer peeled off the river queen. His opponent had pocket aces and sent over a large portion of his stack to Baker.
