Santoni Soars

We do not know what happened before the turn, but its safe to assume there was same raising as the pot was about 60,000. With a {4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} board expose Jean-Louis Santoni placed a bet that would put Zimnan Ziyard all in. Ziyard asked his opponent "can you beat queen high? to which Santoni responded with silence.

After a minute or so went by Santoni made the call and indeed showed queen high, {Q-Diamonds}{2-}. Santoni however held {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for three of a kind threes. Nothing could come to save Ziyard, and he was eliminated as the {k-Clubs} fell on the river.
