Alms for the Poor

The flop read {5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{j-Spades} when John "ZT Cattle" Alm got all his chips in against Andrew Chen. Bit of a cooler, really.

Alm: {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for trips
Chen: {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a full house

Alm's friends at the rail were calling for a queen. The turn was a disappointment for them...

Turn: {3-Clubs}

...But they must have loved the river.

River: {q-Hearts} giving Alm the bigger boat.

Alm doubled up to 39,000. The luckless Chen dropped to 43,000.
