"A Down-Bet Huh?"

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Upeshka De Silva raised to 145,000 from under the gun, with 1,000 left behind. Alexandru Papazian was in the hijack and asked for a count before deciding to call.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Clubs} and De Silva looked back at the tournament clock, showing 19 players, before deciding to check. Papazian bet 10,000 and De Silva said with a straight face, "a down-bet huh?" before tossing in his last chip in the middle to call.

De Silva: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Papazian: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

De Silva admitted he was sweating the pay jump, but tabled a set of threes, looking good to double. Papazian had a gut-shot straight draw. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and the river was the {q-Clubs} to send the pot to De Silva.
