Papelian Gets Big Value on River Straight

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante

With 6,000 already in the pot on a {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs} board, the under-the-gun player bet 3,000. Sevak Papelian, in the big blind, raised to 8,000 and was snap-called by his opponent's {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

Fortunately, Papelian had {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for the stone-cold nut straight and he was able to scoop a big early pot.
