Martirosian Runs Into Aces on the Bubble
Level 18
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jean-Robert Bellande raised to 400,000 in middle position and Artur Martirosian moved all in for 2,970,000 on the button. Rob Yong called in the big blind, while Bellande got out of the way.
Artur Martirosian: A♠Q♣ 
Rob Yong: A♥A♦
Yong had woken up with aces and was poised to bust Martirosian on the money bubble. Martirosain got some hope on the J♠J♣7♣K♠ board with a straight draw, but he missed the 4♠ river and was eliminated short of the money.
The remaining eight players have all locked up $200,000.
