Another Fortunate Call for Sarkis

On a turn of {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Sarkis Akopyan's opponent bets 42,000 and Sarkis calls. The river is {2-Diamonds} and the opponent bets 80,000. Sarkis calls and turns over {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. Ace high is good as the opponent has but {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Sarkis now has 850,000 and is fourth in chips.
