The flop came Q♣Q♦5♦ and Murciano bet 180,000. Diaz called to see the 2♣ turn, where Murciano bet another 550,000. Diaz again called.
The river was the A♠ and Murciano bet 400,000 this time. Diaz called once more with A♥J♥ for a rivered two pair, but Murciano had flopped trips with Q♠J♣ to win the big pot.
