Moon Hero-Calls Correctly Against Martirosian
Dongwuk Moon raised for Sunghak Lee in the big blind to call. Lee check-called the K♣6♥4♦ flop for 120,000 before they checked down the 9♥ turn and 7♦ river. Lee tabled the A♠6♠ and won the pot.
Artur Martirosian then raised to 160,000 and Moon defended the big blind. Moon check-raised the K♠8♣3♥ flop from 110,000 to 330,000 and won the pot uncontested.
Martirosian won the blinds and ante with a min-raise, then defended the big blind against Moon's min-raise on the button. The Q♥8♣7♦ flop was checked by Martirosian, Moon bet 180,000 and the call of the chip leader followed.
The A♦ turn was checked and Martirosian bet the 2♦ river for 800,000. Moon then went into an atypical tank and called after two minutes.
"You win," Martirosian declared and revealed 10♣9♦ for a busted straight draw. Moon won the pot with the K♠10♦ and that resulted in some gasps by the other players.
