Big Call by Big Papa

Sam Capra opened to 55,000 from the cutoff and was called by Viet "Big Papa" Vo in the big blind.

The dealer flopped {8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Vo checked to Capra who continued for 80,000. Vo check-raised to 190,000 and Capra moved all in.

"Wow," Vo said. "You have anything?"

Capra shrugged the question off and Vo continued to tank.

"Ok," he finally said. "I call."

"Shit!" Capra blurted.

Capra: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Vo: {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

Vo was too nervous to watch and walked away as the dealer burned and turned the {4-Spades}. Capra stood silently trying to will a king or a queen, but it was not to be as the {10-Clubs} fell on the river.

"Is it over???" Vo shouted from a table away.

Vo was very happy to find out that the hand was indeed over and that he held. Capra shook Vo's hand before exiting the Amazon Room.

"Make sure to call me 'Big Papa,'" Vo yelled at one of our tournament reporters while waving a hat with his nickname printed on it.

The man they call Big Papa has a big stack of 1,900,000 chips.
