Pantling to the Nines

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Justin Filtz opened for 57,000 from middle position, and it folded around to Wesley Pantling in the big blind who made the call. The flop came {Q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}. Pantling checked, and Filtz promptly bet 78,000. Pantling paused, then called the bet. The turn was the {2-Diamonds}, putting a second pair on board, and both players checked.

The river brought the {7-Diamonds} and a hefty 250,000 bet from Pantling. Filtz considered for a half-minute, then made the call. Pantling turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, and Filtz nodded and mucked.

Pantling is up to 1,530,000 now, while Filtz has 3,325,000.
