Two for Marchese, One for Kanit

Level 5 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

It's small pot poker over on table X with no major pots of note. That being said, here's what has happened:

Paul Phua made a raise to 6,500 from under-the-gun and Mustapha Kanit (button) was the only caller. On the {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{K-Clubs} flop, Phua bet 6,000 and Kanit called. The {10-Hearts} turn and {5-Spades} river were both checked through and Kanit announced "two pairs," and showed {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Phua nodded and mucked.

On the next hand, Marchese made it 7,000 to play and received no action, he showed two red queens as he took the pot.

It was a case of winner stays on as the two winners of the previous hand clashed in a pot soon after. Kanit raised to 6,500 on the button and Marchese called out of the big blind. Kanit bet 5,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop and Marchese called. Neither player bet the {10-Spades} turn, but Marchese fired out 18,000 on the {K-Clubs} river. Kanit paused for thought but decided to fold.
