Artur Martirosian raised on the button to 100,000 and Darius Samual placed out a stack of large denomination chips, putting Martirosian all-in, who had roughly 1,700,000 behind. Martirosian made the call.
Artur Martirosian: A♦10♦ 
Darius Samual: A♥K♦
The flop of 6♥6♦K♥ offered no help to Martirosian, who was now even further behind. The 3♦ turn gave him a glimmer of hope, picking up a flush draw. His quest for his third bracelet was still alive, until the J♥ river sealed his fate.
Martirosian finishes in fourth place for $180,000 and Samual advances to the finals in hopes of winning his first WSOP bracelet.
