Patur Holds on For Knockout

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

After a limp from under the gun, Bala Patur raised to 3,000 from early position. Middle position moved all in for 20,700. Action folded back around to Patur, who, after a count from the dealer, made the call fairly quickly with his opponent covered.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Bala Patur: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Patur was already ahead, and improved to a pair on the {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop. The {8-Hearts} turn and {8-Clubs} river changed little, and Patur's pair of queens was still best. He scooped the pot while his opponent headed to the rail.
