Martirosian Extends Chip Lead, First Over 1 Million

Level 11 : 2,500/5,000, 625 ante

Before the break, Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian became the chip leader by getting {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} all in preflop against the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} of Paulo "paulinhoo00" Brombin. The board ran out {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Spades} {5-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} to give Martirosian a set.

Martirosian then extended his lead by winning a couple hands, including one where he opened to 11,000 in middle position and called the 82,750 button all-in of "FouEnculePL". He had {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} versus {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and held on the board of {6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {k-Hearts}.

He then won an uncontested pot a couple hands later to bring his stack over 1 million chips.

Selouan Flops Better Side of Straight Over Straight

Level 12 : 3,000/6,000, 750 ante

DingeBrinker opened under the gun to 10,000, Rodrigo "SELOUAN1991" Selouan called in the cutoff, as did Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder in the big blind.

All three players checked the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop. The {j-Clubs} turn brought a 12,169 bet from Selouan, which was raised to 94,807 by Mulder. "DingeBrinker" folded and Selouan raised all in to which Mulder called for his last 9,666 chips.

Rodrigo "SELOUAN1991" Selouan: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder: {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}

Both players flopped a straight but it was Selouan with the higher one, as the meaningless {5-Spades} completed the board.

".COM??LOL" Doubles Through Veldhuis

Level 12 : 3,000/6,000, 750 ante

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis opened to 12,300 in the hijack and ".COM??LOL" called on the button.

The two players saw a {5-Spades}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop and ".COM??LOL" called Veldhuis' 12,821 continuation bet. On the {5-Hearts} turn, Veldhuis bet enough to put ".COM??LOL" all in and ".COM??LOL" called off his last 78,309 chips.

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}
".COM??LOL": {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

".COM??LOL" held pocket rockets but had to fade a spade on the river, and the {q-Clubs} completed the board, sending the pot his way.

".COM??LOL" Binks Two-outer on River

Level 13 : 3,500/7,000, 875 ante

"Sajanas23" opened to 15,400 in early position and ".COM??LOL" three-bet to 63,000 from the big blind. "Sajanas23" then went all in for 307,665 and was called by ".COM??LOL".

"Sajanas23": {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
".COM??LOL": {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

"Sajanas23" was looking good to double on the {5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{k-Spades} flop as well as on the {9-Diamonds} turn, but disaster struck for him as the {j-Clubs} peeled off on the river to send the pot over to a fortunate ".COM??LOL".
