ArtHouse2011 vs Martorisian

Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang was unable to spin up his late entry and busted right after the final four tables were reached.

Ireland's "ArtHouse2011" was left short when they doubled Fabiano "Kovalski1" Kovalski and then three-bet jammed into a raise by Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian, who snap-called.

"ArtHouse2011": {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and one jack was not enough.

Up next, Michael "merla888" Gathy defended the big blind against a raise by chip leader Filipe "Zagazaur" Oliveira and check-raised the {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop from 12,276 to 39,000. Oliveira called to see the {10-Clubs} turn on which Gathy bet 31,104 and was called.

On the {9-Clubs} river, Gathy jammed for 227,424 and Oliveira beat him into the pot. Gathy's {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} had turned the nut straight but Oliveira rivered a flush with {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.
