Oh Yes He Did -- Wasicka Doubles

Paul Wasicka
Paul Wasicka
With 25,000 chips in the pot preflop, Paul Wasicka led out for 9,500 on a flop of {3-Spades} {7-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} after his lone opponent, Payman Arjang, checked. Arjang check-raised to 23,000 and Wasicka called.

Arjang checked the turn {A-Hearts}, then called a bet of 26,000 from Wasicka. When the river fell {3-Clubs}, Arjang led out for 26,000 of his own. Wasicka took roughly one minute before moving in for 82,500. Arjang was pained to make the call, but he did. Wasicka wordlessly turned over {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} for rivered trips.

"Oh no you didn't!" exclaimed Arjang upon seeing Wasicka's hand. "Are you serious?" Wasicka was dead serious. Arjang had no choice at that point but to ship 82,500 chips to Wasicka, who added them to the pot to increase his stack to 287,000.
