Papazian Doubles His Stack Without Being At Risk
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Left with 60,000 chips 20 minutes before the end of Level 9, Alexandru Papazian had 50,000 more chips 10 minutes later.
First, he won a 30,000 pot thanks to a better pair. Then he called from the big blind an open by a player in middle position, which was already called by the cutoff.
On the flop 9♠J♥6♥, the middle position player continued to 3,300, and got called twice. The turn 10♥ didn't change anything, as all three players checked.
This lack of action motivated Papazian to take the lead on the river 2♣, where he bet 25,000. Covered, the player in middle position folded, and the cutoff also mucked his cards.
