Martirosian Bluffs into Plesuv's Boat

Level 22 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Artur Martirosian raised to 800,000 from the small blind and Pavel Plesuv called from the big blind.

Both players checked the KQ2 flop and the 2 hit the turn. Martirosian placed out a delayed continuation-bet of 550,000, and Plesuv continued with a call.

A double board-pairing K completed the runout, and Martirosian overbet for 3,500,000. Plesuv quickly called and Martirosian sheepishly tabled 106, playing the board.

Plesuv showed KJ for a full house to take down the pot, close the gap on Martirosian, and distance himself over short-stacked Winter.
