Papazian Takes Out Steinbrenner, Approaching One Million

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,500, 3,500 ante
Alexandru Papazian
Alexandru Papazian

Alexandru Papazian and Justin Steinbrenner built a pot of around 120,000 on a board of {9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{7-Spades} when Steinbrenner, in the hijack, moved all in for 110,000.

"Feels like kings," Papazian said as he asked for a count. He eventually called with {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} fo top pair. Steinbrenner didn't have kings, instead showing {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a flush draw.

The river came the {k-Hearts} and Steinbrenner was eliminated.

"Sorry for the slow roll," Papazian told Steinbrenner, who took the loss in stride and was still smiling when he shook Papazian's hand on his way to the rail.
