Tosoc: 
With Foxen at risk, but in the lead, the dealer spreads a 
flop to keep him in the lead, but also give Tosoc an additional four outs to a straight to go along with his live queen.
The turn lands the 
which thrusts Tosoc into the lead, but it also gave Foxen outs to a bigger straight with one of the three remaining queens in the deck.
The order was given to the dealer, and she burned and turned the
