Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Carlos Esquerdo picked up Q?Q? under the gun and raised to 240,000 as Fernando Santa Maria defended K?10?.
Esquerdo flopped top set on Q?2?4? and checked back to the 2? turn, where he got what he wished for as Santa Maria led into him for 200,000.
Esquerdo called and the river came the 5?. Santa Maria bet another 950,000, Esquerdo then sprung his trap by moving all in for 1,800,000, and Santa Maria snap-folded.
