Martirosyan's Cracked Aces Send him Out
Level 18
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Mohamad El Rais raised 13,000 on the button and Vahe Martirosyan defended the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of K♠8♦4♥ and Martirosyan check-called a bet of 11,000.
When the J♣ fell on the turn, Martirosyan check-raised all in for 61,000 over the 27,000 bet and El Rais snap-called.
Vahe Martirosyan: A♦A♥
Mohamad El Rais: K♦4♠
Martirosyan started with the best possible hand, but El Rais out-flopped him with two pair and the Q♥ river was no help as he exited the table.
