Paul's Armor Is Pierced

With the flop reading {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{A-Hearts} Paul Pierce checked to his opponent who fired out a bet of 2,500. Pierce made the call and the turn brought the {10-Spades}. Pierce checked once again and his opponent pushed out 5,400. Pierce quickly made the call.

The {3-Clubs} hit the river and Pierce threw out a bet of 6,000. His opponent inquired how much Pierce had behind and then raised it to 19,100. Pierce tanked for about a minute before mucking his hand.
