Martirosian Grabs a Huge Double-Up
Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Artur Martirosian raised to 41,000 from under the gun and the action folded to chipleader Leon Sturm in the small blind. Sturm confirmed the stack of his opponent before shoving all in, receiving a quick call from Martirosian.
Artur Martirosian: A♥Q♥
Leon Sturm 4♦4♣
Martirosian flopped an ace on A♠2♦6♦, and although the 3♥ turn made proceedings a tad exciting, the 8♥ river was a big blank, causing Martirosian to gain the chip lead on the ongoing bubble.
