Lu Brings the Pain to Spain

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Wei-Hsun Lu
Wei-Hsun Lu

Taiwan's Wei-Hsun Lu raised to 12,000 and Gonzalo Ranero three-bet jammed for 99,000 in the hijack. Fellow Spaniard Jon Santos then pushed all-in for 149,000 and Lu asked for a count on the larger stack. He then called half a minute later and they pushed them over.

Gonzalo Ranero: 9?9?
Jon Santos: A?K?
Wei-Hsun Lu: Q?Q?

The 8?8?5? flop and 6? turn kept Ranero and Santos with some equity. However, the 5? river kept Lu ahead and he sent both players from Spain to the rail.
