Xu Falls to Martirosian
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
A pot of around 400,000 had brewed between Liang Xu on the button and Artur Martirosian in the big blind.
The board read 7♣9♠7♠J♥ and Martirosian had shoved the turn, which put Xu to the test for his remaining stack of around 350,000. Several time banks later, Xu called.
Liang Xu: J♣8♣ 
Artur Martirosian: 10♣7♥
Martirosian had flopped trips and even blocked some of the outs of Xu as any ten would make him a full house. Only a jack could save Xu, but the A♦ river wasn't it, which meant he was eliminated.
