Early Position: 
The flop landed 
to give the opponent a commanding lead and the 
was just an insult to injury for Zhan. However, the dealer put down the 
on the river to give Zhan queens full and the table erupted after the rollercoaster hand.
"What a sick hand!" someone commented.
Zhan remarked that the hand "played itself" and the opponent replied that he was "surprised you called."
"Hard to fold queens," a table mate countered.
