Pavel Plesuv raised to 600,000 on the button and Artur Martirosian defended from the big blind.

Both players checked through the 436 flop to see the 10 hit the turn. Martirosian led out for 1,250,000, and Plesuv responded with a raise to 3,100,000. Martirosian stuck around with a call to see a river.

A check came from Martirosian on the K river, and Plesuv elected to bet 5,300,000. Martirosian immediately called.

Plesuv revealed two pair with 106, but it was no good against Martirosian's rivered straight with 52.
