Royal Flush Over Quads

Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Action folded to Daniele Nestola in the small blind, who raised, and Max Kruse three-bet all in for 300,000 from the big blind. Nestola quickly called to put Kruse at risk.
Max Kruse: A?J?
Daniele Nestola: K?K?
Kruse needed to improve to crack the kings of Nestola, and when the flop came Q?K?10? he flopped a Royal Flush which made the table erupt with yells.
Nestola was drawing dead with his set of kings, and to add insult to injury, the turn was the 3? followed by the K? on the river to give him quads.
After the excitement settled, Kruse took in the pot after his Royal Flush gave him the double-up.
