Lodge Can't Win Flip to Stay Alive
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Artur Martirosian opened the action to 22,000 from early position and Nicola Grieco made the call next to act. It folded to Kelvin Kerber on the button who also made the call and Harry Lodge elected to move all in from the big blind for 186,000 total. Martirosian moved all in over the top, covering the rest of his opponents, who quickly got out of the way and the cards were on their backs.
Harry Lodge: A♦K♠
Artur Martirosian: Q♠Q♣
It was a classic flip situation, but when the board ran out Q♦4♥3♥2♠A♣, it was the queens for Martirosian that made a set to send Lodge to the exit in 50th place.
