Reard's Ladies Melt Martirosian's Snowmen
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Naryman Yaghmaie raised from the hijack to 25,000 and Artur Martirosian called out of the small blind. Alexandre Reard squeezed all in for 218,000 from the big blind, which only Martirosian called.
Alexandre Reard: Q♥Q♠ 
Artur Martirosian: 8♣8♥
Reard had the bigger pocket pair and managed to fade the bad beat on the 7♥A♦5♦6♥J♦ runout, which meant he doubled up to almost half a million.
