Murciano Smacks the Flop Against Diaz

Level 28
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Carlos Diaz raised to 320,000 on the button, Alvaro Murciano three-bet to 800,000 in the small blind, and Diaz called.
The flop came Q?Q?5? and Murciano bet 180,000. Diaz called to see the 2? turn, where Murciano bet another 550,000. Diaz again called.
The river was the A? and Murciano bet 400,000 this time. Diaz called once more with A?J? for a rivered two pair, but Murciano had flopped trips with Q?J? to win the big pot.
