Martirosian Gets an Early Double
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Paul Newey opened to 4,500 in middle position and was three-bet to 14,000 by Scott Margereson out of the hijack. Artur Martirosian was next to act in the cutoff and cold four-bet all in for 50,000, getting folds back around to Newey, who folded as well. Margereson then made the call.
Artur Martirosian: 
Scott Margereson: 
Martirosian found help on the flop 
and was able to fade the two outer as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout to score him an early double at the expense of Margereson, who now finds himself with a stack below 10 big blinds early in Day 2.
