Naryman Yaghmaie Eliminated in 11th Place ($96,000)
Level 20
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Vincent Huang raised on the button to 230,000 and Naryman Yaghmaie shoved from the small blind for 745,000. Artur Martirosian was in the big blind and took some time before he shoved, which got Huang to fold.
Naryman Yaghmaie: K♠J♦
Artur Martirosian: 5♠5♦
It was a classic coinflip deep in a tournament, and one that Yaghmaie needed to win to stay alive. The flop of 7♥3♥8♥ kept the pocket fives of Martirosian in the lead, and the 4♣ turn put Yaghmaie one step closer to the rail.
No drama arrived on the river as the 2♥ filled out the board, which meant Yaghmaie was out in 11th.
