"We Were Both So Happy"

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante
Aaron Paul
Aaron Paul

With 4,100 in the pot and a flop of {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, Aaron Paul bet 1,200 from the big blind and Brazil's Joao Alberto Barreto raised the minimum to 2,400. Paul called and then checked the {9-Hearts} on the turn.

Barreto bet 3,200, Paul check-raised to 6,500, and Barreto called to see the {2-Clubs} river. Paul downsized to 6,000 and Barreto quickly called with the {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. Paul then showed his own ladies with the {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

"Well played my friend," said Paul. "That's hilarious. We were both so happy."
