Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Vahe Martirosyan three-bet to 30,000 from middle position, then called when Atanas Malinov moved all in for 90,000.
Atanas Malinov: A♣Q♦
Vahe Martirosyan: 9♥9♦
Malinov was racing for his tournament life and picked up a straight draw on the K♥2♦J♠ flop to go with his overcards.
The board, though, ran out 8♣5♦ and Martirosyan's nines stayed in front to send Malinov to the rail.
