Fortune Favours the Leibold

After a raise and an all in, Imre Leibold flat-called the 30,000 shove only to have the player behind him repush all in and then the initial raiser moved all in as well.

Leibold tanked and folded what he said was queens, only to be shown {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} by the original raiser who covered, {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for the short stack and {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} for the other even shorter stack.

The board came {3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} and (of course) the worst hand almost quadrupled up while the unfortunate player with aces was eliminated.
