Leonard Scoops Two in a Row
Level 50
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Artur Martirosian raised to 40,000 on the button with K♣7♣ and Patrick Leonard three-bet to 145,000 from the big blind with a dominating A♥K♥. Martirosian called and they saw a flop of 10♥4♠3♠.
Leonard continued with a bet of 215,000 and Martirosian instantly ditched his cards to the muck.
On the next hand, Leonard raised to 38,000 on the button with J♣5♥ and Martirosian defended from the big blind with 3♣2♣. Both players flopped a pair on the J♥7♠2♠ flop but checked through to the 4♣ on the turn.
Martirosian checked again and Leonard followed suit with another check despite holding top pair. The K♦ completed the board and Martirosian checked for the third time. Leonard finally came in with a bet of 60,000 and Martirosian paid him off.
