With less than 6,000 in the pot on a queen-high board, Dylan Linde was in the cutoff, heads up against Michael Vanderwoude.

They were at showdown and Vanderwoude had tabled his pocket queens for top set. Before Linde mucked, he showed pocket aces and said, "That could have been grim," with a wry smile on his face. Both players are still around starting stack.
