River Queen Means Ulises' Odyssey Continues

With the board showing {Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{A-Spades}, Ulises Roman got all of his chips in the middle holding {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for top two pair. Unfortunately for him, he was up against Dan LaCourse's {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} -- a set of jacks.

The river {Q-Clubs} saved the day for Roman, though, giving him a full house. He doubles up to 36,000, while LaCourse drops back down to 36,000.
