Samaha Makes Correct Hero Call with Pair of Sevens

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Bernard Samaha
Bernard Samaha

There was roughly 45,000 in the middle on a {k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} board and Afshin Afsharorumieh, from the hijack, put out a bet of 16,000 and placed his chips directly in front of Bernard Samaha, who sat directly to his left.

Samaha was not amused, replying: "I don't believe you have the king." After about 20 seconds, Samaha begrudgingly tossed in a call.

Afsharorumieh could only produce {10-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a missed straight draw while Samaha turned over {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for third pair and took down the huge pot.
