Diego Sanchez opened to 450 under the gun before a man in the hijack seat three-bet to 1,150. Sanchez made the smooth call, and the two men saw a flop of {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{8-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

.

{9-Clubs}

. The action check-checked, and Sanchez checked again on the {A-Diamonds}

river. When his opponent checked it back, Sanchez slumped in his chair, tabling {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{2-Hearts}

for the full house. His opponent flashed {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

as he slid them into the muck, and a frustrated Sanchez collected the smaller-than-he-would-have-liked pot.

Still, he's up to about 31,000.
