Papazian Can't Fade the Runout

Level 8 : 1,250/2,500, 325 ante

Alexandru "steakaddict." Papazian opened to 4,500 from the hijack, Ivan "ILS007" Stokes called in the cutoff, and stuck around from the small blind.

The flop fell {j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and action checked to Stokes who bet 5,775. Koplimaa instantly raised to 16,800, Papazian and Stokes both called.

An {8-Spades} turn landed, all three tapped and the {q-Hearts} river completed the board. Papazian led out for 48,000 and Stokes called.

Koplimaa jammed over the top, having enough to cover his opponents. Papazian was the lone-caller, putting his 171.113 into the middle with {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

The set of sixes fell short when Koplimaa showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a rivered straight to take down the bountiful pot.
