Papazian Thriving
Level 33
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Weiyi Zhang raised to 23,000 from early position and was called by Alexandru Papazian from two seats over and Martin Zamani in the big blind. On the 
flop, action checked to Papazian and he bet 21,000. Zamani made the call while Zhang got out of the way.
On the 
turn, Zamani checked once more and Papazian now bet 126,000.
"A lot. Just curious, maybe there is a reason," Zamani said in table chat and called, trying to get any kind of reaction from his opponent.
The 
on the river was checked through and Zamani turned over 
for top pair. Papazian had that beat with 
for top two and claimed the pot, adding "that was the reason" with a grin on the face.
