Action picked up preflop in a hand with a player all in against Mukul Pahuja, who had his opponent covered.
All-in Player: A♠K♦ 
Mukul Pahuja, 8♣8♠
The dealer fanned 5♣4♠5♥ on the board, keeping Pahuja’s pocket pair in the lead. The situation didn’t change when 7♦ showed up on the turn.
The Q♠ on the river provided a moment of anxiety, especially when Puhuja’s opponent thought the paint card was a king.
But the card didn’t help and Puhuja won the pot to send his opponent to the rail.
