Almost...

Queens can be deadly...

In a $20 SNG earlier this evening, I nearly cracked pocket aces with the Hilton Sisters! Four way pot... four players all-in at a very tight table. I knew someone had Aces when the second dude pushed it all-in. I was begging for a Queen to fall on the flop...

So very close. I won the side pot against pocket Kings and pocket tens, but failed to take out the Aces. I was pretty pumped about the flop, but was quickly dejected when the ace hit on the turn.
