Paddock Delivers a Bad Beat to Survive
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Robert Paddock and Steven Gagliano had turned their hands face up when we arrived and the dealer was about to roll out the board to determine the preflop contest. Both players had strong holdings but Gagliano's hand was dominating.
Paddock: 
Gagliano: 
The board ran 
to give Paddock a boat and Gagliano stood up from his chair.
"Come on, bro!". Gagliano said in disbelief.
Gagliano conceded 113,000 to Paddock and play carried on.
