Bad Beat of the Day?

Two players managed to get all their chips in the middle preflop. Player One had Player Two covered and held {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds}. Player Two's tournament life was on the line, holding {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}. Things couldn't have been better. Until...

Flop: {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}

Sitting with the highest pocket pair, and the highest diamond in his hand, Player One was looking great...until the {Q-Spades} came on the turn. Player Two would need another queen to win the hand, and only the {Q-Clubs}, as the {Q-Diamonds} would give Player One the flush.

What card do you think came on the river? You guessed it: {Q-Clubs}.
