Cantu Fills Up

Earlier, Brandon Cantu hit a three-outter with a Queen on the river stay alive. According to Nam Le, he just hit another three-outter Queen on the river to scoop a rather large pot.

On a {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop, Nam Le bet 3,100 into Cantu who made the call. The turn was the {8-Diamonds} and Cantu raised Le's 5,600-chip bet to 15,100. Le made the call and the river was the {q-Diamonds}. Le checked and Cantu fired 29,600. After counting out his chips and realizing it was just les than half of his remaining stack Le tossed in the chips for a call. Cantu tabled {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a full house. Le seemed upset and a little bit sick by Cantu's cards, later claiming to have had Ace-Nine.

Le falls to 36,000 while Cantu has bounced back in a big way as he is all the way up to 130,000.
