Seed of Destruction

Huck Seed was all in on third against another player and the dealer quickly dealt out both players.

Seed: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Opponent: {J-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Both players made a pair of queens but Seed was outkicked and hence became one of the earliest players to hit the rail.

Luneau Eclipses Liesy For Quads Over Quads

Level 7 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Some hands are just ridiculous.

Luneau: {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} / {Q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} / {Q-Diamonds}
Liesy: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} / {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} / {K-Hearts}

Joining the action on sixth street, there was a heap of action going on as Alex Luneau ended up all in showing Queens full of Jacks but was astonished to see Marco Liesy flipping buried fives for quads. Luneau got up out of his chair, seventh street seeming to be like a last meal for a condemned man. With Liesy's card irrelevant, Luneau took one last look at his remaining card, double checking in disbelief before he turned over {Q-Diamonds} for the one-outer. The entire table gasped as both Liesy and Luneau had to take a moment to process what had just occurred. The Frenchman doubled up in the most amazing of coolers.

Liesy - 65,000
Luneau - 33,000
