Sick Cooler First Hand After Dinner Break

Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

After a few preflop raises, three players got all of their chips in the middle in the very first hand back from dinner break. "What, did they set up the deck like this or something?" Louis Hillman asked rhetorically as he stood up from his seat.

Joshua Greenberg: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Louis Hillman: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Hillman was at risk for around 500,000 and the third player had around 300,000. Greenberg had both players covered and the odds were in his favor. The board ran out {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{k-Spades}{a-Spades} and Greenberg needed his set of queens on the flop in order to eliminate both of his opponents.
