James Carroll busts Allen Le with quads


James Carroll and Allen Le were all in against a third player, and Allen was in front with pocket queens.  James held pocket jacks and the third player held pocket tens.  The [Kd]Ah][7s] kept Allen in front, but the [Js] on the turn spelled disaster for Allen.  James had taken the lead with a set of jacks, and now Allen needed one of the two remaining tens to make a straight.  Instead, the case jack hit the river to give James quads and the triple up.  Allen will exit the tournament without cashing.
