Paik Gets Paid
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
With about 45,000 chips already in the middle and the completed board reading 
, Albert Paik was in the cutoff and facing a decision for 15,000 against the player in the big blind. Paik went into the tank for nearly a minute before he raised to 57,000. His opponent called and Paik quickly flipped over 
for the rivered nut straight. Paik's opponent flicked his cards into the muck and Paik took the chips.
