Nihipali Gets Paid on the River; Opponent Goes Off

Level 14 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With a board showing {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, there were already around 100,000 chips in the middle. After his opponent checked, Albert Nihipali fired in a bet of 20,000.

His opponent went into the tank and his face went beet red with frustration, and a small vein was seen popping out of the side of his head. After another 20 seconds, he threw in the chips to call. Nihipali tabled {3-Spades}{3-Clubs} for a full house on the river.

"Oh my God! You called 20,000 to hit a three with no diamond!?" The opponent exclaimed while mucking his hand.
