An Unfortunate Runout Ends Martirosian's Day Early
Level 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Artur Martirosian made it 16,000 from the hijack and Xiaosheng Zheng shoved from the big blind. Martirosian instantly called for his stack of 160,000.
Artur Martirosian: A♥Q♠ 
Xiaosheng Zheng: A♠J♦
Martirosian had Zheng out-kicked and looked likely to double up and leave Zheng on crumbs. However, a flop of K♠J♣8♦ came down and Zheng took the lead with a pair of jacks. The remainder of the board came A♦5♣, and Martirosian was out.
