Ngo Takes Out Saez in Classic Flip
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Carlos Saez raised to 20,000 under the gun before Minh Thang Ngo three-bet to 60,000 in early position. Saez moved all in for 278,000 and Ngo tanked for a minute before calling.
Carlos Saez: A♥K♠ 
Minh Thang Ngo: Q♠Q♥
It was a classic race situation as the flop came J♦9♦2♥. Ngo's queens stayed in the lead on the J♠ turn, while the Q♣ river improved him to a full house as Saez shot back in his seat. The stacks were counted down and Ngo had Saez barely covered, sending him to the rail.
