Level 14
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Oscar Gironella opened to 10,000 from udner the gun and Adam Sanchez three-bet to 20,000 from the cutoff. Gironella made the call.
Both players checked the Q?Q?2? flop leading to the 9? turn. Gironella bet 30,000 only for Sanchez to raise to 120,000, committing roughly half his stack in the process. Gironella made the call.
Both players checked on the A? river. Sanchez showed K?10? for a bluff while Gironella tabled Q?Q? for quads to score a colossal pot, surpassing Javier Romero for the chip lead in the process.
