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 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, . Santoni however held for three of a kind threes. Nothing could come to save Ziyard, and he was eliminated as the fell on the river.
