Paur Scoops to Triple
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On a flop of 8♦6♥A♦, all the chips between Quan Zhou, Taylor Paur, and another player found its way into the middle, with Zhou covering by a mile.
Player 1: A♥Q♠10♣4♥
Taylor Paur: 9♠8♥7♦5♣
Quan Zhou: 8♠8♣2♣2♠
Zhou was in the lead with his flopped set of eights, but he still had to fade the wrap of Paur to stay that way.
Of course, the 5♠ came on the turn to give Paur the straight, but Zhou also picked up a spade draw to make it an even match.
Alas, the 2♦ on the river failed to pair the board or deliver a spade and Paur was pushed the pot with his straight while the other player hit the rail.
