Payan Pulls A Move, Isrealashvili Looks Him Up

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

With the board reading {4-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and a small pot up for grabs, Elie Payan continued his hyper-aggressive play by betting 20,000 in the dark. The turn came {8-Diamonds} and Roland Isrealashvili made the call. After the river came {J-Hearts} Payan kept pushing with a pot-sized bet of 60,000 and Isrealashvili insta-called.

The Frenchman quietly sighed and said "good call" while Isrealashvili tabled his {A-}{8-} and two unknown cards for trip eights. While punishing the table has been working for the last few hours, perhaps Payan has pushed it to the limit with his blind betting.
