Default What are the odds?

Here's a good one for y'all I saw last night in our card room.

$200 max buyin NL...blinds $2 and $5.

Stacks

Player A has table covered

Player B apprx $230

Player C apprx $304

Player A raises 1st in from EP to $35

Player B re-raises to $150 and Player C pushes for $304.

Player A hem haws for about a minute and a half then calls.

Player B calls his last $80.

Player A: QQ

Player B: KK

Player C: AA

I think this is an easy laydown for Player A with QQ. He's only in for $35 and is facing a raise and an allin re-raise...which reaks of AA!)...

I think Player B's call is correct for his last $80.

What are the odds for these top 3 premiums all in the same hand...221 to the 3rd power? That's approximatley 11 million to one!

P.S. Oh and btw. Flop comes Axx with 2 spades. No one has a spade. Turn is a deuce and it's over, the aces hold up.
