Santos Fires All Streets

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Ross Santos raised under the gun to 1,500 and the player on his left three-bet to 3,000. The action folded back around to Santos and he called.

On the {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop, Santos took the lead, firing for 2,500 and his opponent called.

On the {5-Clubs} turn, Santos continued for a bet of 6,000 and got called.

The {2-Diamonds} hit the river and Santos fired for a third time, this time choosing to bet 18,000 and that was enough to put his opponent out of the hand.
