Ryan One Up's Paur

Steve Ryan, who is one of the competitors in the Onnit Last Sticker standing contest, raised it up to 600 in early position, and Taylor Paur was the only caller out of the big blind. The flop came down {6-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, and both players checked. The {9-Hearts} hit the turn, and Paur fired out 900. Rice came along to see the river, which was the {5-Diamonds}. Paur fired out another bet, 2,250 this time, and after 20 seconds of thought, Ryan tossed in the call.

Paur tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for top pair, but it was no good, as Ryan held {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} for a better ace. He took the pot to get back up to 17,000, and while Paur lost that hand, he's still sitting on a healthy 49,000.
