Aram Zobian Eliminated in 5th Place ($68,625)
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Aram Zobian opened to 100,000 in the cutoff, and Zach Bruch on the button three-bet all in for 1,500,000. It folded back to Zobian who quickly called for his stack of 590,000 to put himself at risk.
Aram Zobian: Q♠Q♦
Zach Bruch: 9♠9♥
Buch ran into the bigger pocket pair of Zobian, and could find no help on the 6♦A♦10♥ flop, but did pick up extra outs with a straight draw after the 7♥ on the turn. The river brought that draw right in when the 8♦ came on the river, to give Bruch the pot and knock out Zobian in fifth place.
