Paytas Leaves Ohannessian Short
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Arthur Ohannessian opened from middle position and Nathan Paytas three-bet to 275,000 from the cutoff. Ohannessian four-bet to 680,000. Paytas five-bet jammed for around 2,400,000 and Ohannessian quickly called with around the same stack.
Arthur Ohannessian: K?K?
Nathan Paytas: Q?Qx
Paytas had the lower pocket pair and couldn't hit a queen as the board ran out 8?4?6?9?K? to improve Ohannessian to a set. An extensive count that required some assistance from the floor confirmed that Paytas had Ohannessian covered and was left with a meager 70,000.
As the lengthy chip count took place, Oscar Alache took some selfies with a nicely constructed chip tower.
