Martirosian Gets on the Board
Level 61
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Artur Martirosian raised to 50,000 on the button with K♠J♠ and Aliaksei Boika three-bet to 200,000 from the big blind with A♦K♣. Martirosian called and flopped the best hand on the Q♦J♣2♠ flop.
Boika continued with a pot-sized bet of 400,000 and Martirosian called to see the 6♠ on the turn. Boika checked this time and Martirosian quickly checked it back.
The Q♥ paired the board on the river and Boika checked again. Martirosian dropped in a bet of 600,000 which forced Boika to use two of his time banks before calling. Martirosian showed the best hand and brought the matchup closer to even.
