Khachatryan Wins Massive Pot Before Break

Level 3 : 400/800, 800 ante

Levon Khachatryan re-raised to 17,000 over a preflop raise by Jared Bleznick and was called by Bleznick and Leonid Yanovski. The flop came {6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and Khachatryan checked over to Bleznick, who bet 36,000.

Yanovski folded but Khachatryan stuck around to see the {8-Spades} on the turn. Bleznick bet another 60,000 and Khachatryan called. On the {k-Clubs} river, Khachatryan led out for 160,000 and Bleznick went into the tank.

After using two time banks, Bleznick eventually folded and joined the rest of the field on break. "I had the weirdest hand to call you with," Bleznick said.

Level 3 : 400/800, 800 ante

John Beauprez potted to 2,800 from middle position and was called by two players, including Levon Khachatryan in the small blind. The flop came {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Beauprez continued for 3,400 after Khachatryan checked.

Khachatryan called to see the {j-Clubs} fall on the turn and check-called another bet of 6,800. The river came the {q-Spades} and Beauprez bet another 12,000.

Khachatryan snap-called with {j-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for a full house, jacks full of sevens, besting the trip queens of Beauprez and taking the big pot.

Sam Soverel
Sam Soverel

Josh Arieh opened in middle position and Sam Soverel three-bet to 7,200 on the button. Arieh called.

Arieh checked on the {6-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Spades} flop and called a bet of 4,000 from Soverel. Arieh checked again on the {8-Diamonds} turn and Soverel checked back.

Arieh checked once more on the {8-Clubs} flop and Soverel threw out a bet of 10,000, to which Arieh responded with a check-raise to 37,000.

Soverel made a confused face under his black Ray-Ban sunglasses and studied the board before tossing in a call as his shot clock wound down. Arieh tabled {k-}{k-}{7-}{7-} for eights full of kings, while Soverel showed {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts} for eights full of aces and took down the sizeable pot.
