Panish calls down Santos with queens

Level 24: 15,000 / 30,000 ante: 30,000
John Joseph Panish

American John Joseph Panish opens from UTG for 60,000 and the action goes all the way to the BB of Filpino Sergius Santos who defends.


The flop comes 6 7 8 as both players check. The turn is the 7 and this time Santos leads in for 50,000 which gets a call from the American. The river is the K as the Filipino fires 125,000 and gets snap called by Panish.


Although Santos is first to show, Panish turns over Q Q . Santos mucks his hand and takes another hit to his stack, falling way below the one million mark anew.
