Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Artur Martirosian raised to 50,000 from the hijack, and Kadir Altinbasak three-bet to 155,000 from the button. When the action got back to Martirosian, he thought for a while before making the call.
Both players checked the A♠8♥Q♦ flop to see the J♣ arrive on the turn. Martirosian led out for 140,000, and Altinbasak shoved for Martirosian's remaining 355,000. Martirosian snap-called.
Artur Martirosian: A♦J♦ 
Kadir Altinbasak: 8♦8♣
Martirosian had two pair, but he was a long way behind the set of eights of Altinbasak.
Martirosian began to get out of his seat, which did the trick with the poker gods, as the J♠ landed on the river, giving him the higher full house and saving him from the rail.
