Martirosian Gets a Bluff Through
Level 22
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
"Kenar" raised A♥A♦ to 375,000 from early position and Artur Martirosian called in the big blind with 7♣5♣.
The flop came 10♦9♦5♥ and Martirosian check-called a bet of 375,000 from "Kenar" to see the 8♥ fall on the turn. With a pair and open-ended straight draw, Martirosian checked and "Kenar" knuckled back his aces.
A Q♣ completed the board and Martirosian bet 1,300,000, leaving himself 1,015,000 behind. "Kenar" took a peek at Martirosian's stack and started thinking.
"I beat king-ten. Seven-eight I beat. King-queen I beat," he said to himself. After three time banks, "Kenar" folded his aces, and Martirosian got a bluff through.
