As you can see, the queen's were almost completely dead preflop.  There were virtually no cards they could catch to win the hand.  Wow.

So much for the any two cards can win theory.

Not really completely drawing dead, but it is pretty much drawing dead. They could've caught a Q high straight to chop, or 4 cards in the same suit that are not the ones held by the AA.

RAM_Eh

this same situation happened at the Degree Poker tournament. two people had QQ and the other guy had AA at the table near us.
