Arakelian Picks Up a Monster to Leave Tishkevich on Fumes

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Artem Arakelian

Stanislav Tishkevich raised to 35,000 in early position before Artem Arakelian three-bet to 135,000 in the small blind. Tishkevich then moved all in and Arakelian snap-called.

Artem Arakelian: AA
Stanislav Tishkevich: QQ

"C'mon. So sick," Tishkevich said when Arakelian turned over his aces. The 74A flop put Arakelian even further in the lead with top set, while the board ran out KJ.

The stacks were counted down and Arakelian had 610,000 remaining. Tishkevich barely had him covered and was forced to send over most of his stack.
