Warburton's Kings Cracked by Arkhipenkov
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Steven Warburton raised to 4,500 from under the gun and Artur Martirosian called in the cutoff. Anton Arkhipenkov was in the small blind and shoved for 45,000, then Warburton reshoved for around 150,000. Martisosian quickly folded.
Anton Arkhipenkov: A♣Q♣ 
Steven Warburton: K♠K♣
Arkhipenkov needed to find some help from the dealer and the flop of A♠10♦10♠ was a good start as he paired his ace. Warburton had two outs to regain the lead, but could never find either as the 9♠5♦ runout meant Arkhipenkov's ace stayed in the lead.
