Edwin Torres opened for 425k utg and got a call from Hector Vazquez on his left.

The flop came Qh8s6s and Edwin fired 500k.  Hector flatted.  Turn was the 3s and Edwin checked.  Hector tossed out ten ‘peppermint’ chips (100k each) for a million-chip-bet, which was more than Edwin had left.

Edwin folded his QJ offsuit.

After letting go of his big blind, Edwin was in the small blind when James Salmon shoved from the button.  Edwin called all-in for 670k straight holding pocket Queens.  James had Kh9s.

It was over on the flop: QhQd5s.  Edwin had quadzilla and doubled up to ~1.6 million.
