"Right in the Window!"

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante
Joseph Paris

A player raised to 700 under the gun and the next three players on his left all called, the last of which was Steve Wilkie. Joseph Paris was on the button and announced a three-bet to 3,500, only to see the big blind cold four-bet all in for a bit over starting stack. Action folded back to Paris and he called all in for 12,500 total. The big blind announced that he hoped he was in a coin flip after Paris called.

Joseph Paris: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Big Blind: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The big blind was indeed in the best scenario he could have asked for, but the rest was all Paris: "Right in the window!" he said as the flop came {j-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}. The turn {2-Clubs} left the big blind drawing to one shot at two outs, which he was unable to summon as the river {4-Hearts} completed the runout to earn the double for Paris.
