Martirosian Sniffs Out Stormyr's Big Bluff
Level 16
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With about 950,000 in the pot on a completed board of Q♣4♥K♣J♦9♣, Artur Martirosian checked from the big blind, and Sondre Stormyr jammed, covering Martirosian.
Martirosian had 850,000 left in his stack, and the bet made him go deep into the tank. After burning through all of his time banks, Martirosian peeked back at his cards, glanced over at Stormyr, and then made the call.
Stormyr immediately said "Good call", and turned over A♣9♠4♦3♦ for just the nut flush blocker.
Martirosian tabled J♠5♣4♣2♠ for a baby flush and the pot of over two and a half million went to Martirosian.
