Sanchez Wins a Three-Way Pot

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

With action folding around, Francisco Sanchez limped on the button, Michael Wilklow completed his blind and Antonio Vargas checked his option, taking all three players to the flop.

After the blinds checked, Sanchez fired 75,000, which was enough to push Wilkow out of the pot. Vargas decided to see a bit more before surrendering his hand.

After another check on the 9 turn, Sanchez fattened the pot with another 115,000. Having seen enough, Vargas conceded both his hand and the pot to Sanchez.
