Good Flop, Awful Turn, Amazing River

We found David Pham putting a player all in on a flop of {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, the player quickly called and cards were tabled.

Pham: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {J-}{J-}

The turn was bad news for Pham as it was the {J-Hearts}, giving his opponent a set of jacks. Pham still had some outs though he could hit a queen or any heart and he could still win the pot. The river {4-Hearts} was indeed one of the cards Pham needed and helped him deliver the knock out blow to his opponent.
