Stern Meets Papazian ... Twice
Level 23
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Zvi Stern was the initial raiser and Alexandru Papazian defended the big blind to see the flop come 
. Both checked and Papazian then bet the 
turn for 55,000. Stern called before they checked down the 
river.
Papazian showed 
for ace-high and Stern was about to muck, but then checked his cards again. "Oh wait, I am good, I thought I had king-six," the start-of-the-day chip leader said and tabled the winning 
.
One hand later, Stern raised again and Papazian flatted before check-folding the 
turn.
