Shalamov Picks Up Aces, Doubles Through Martirosian
Nivel 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Mikhail Shalamov opened from under the gun to 10,000 and Artur Martirosian three-bet from the hijack to 32,000. When the action got back to Shalamov, he four-bet to 65,000, and Martirosian called.
On the flop of 2♦Q♥9♦, Shalamov fumbled with his chips a little then fired out a bet of 35,000, which Martirosian called.
When the 5♥ landed on the turn, Shalamov shoved for 120,000. Martirosian thought for a while and used some extra time before he eventually called.
Mikhail Shalamov: A♠A♣ 
Artur Martirosian: A♥10♥
Martirosian had a flush draw, which was his only hope of winning the pot. Fortunately for Shalamov, no heart came on the river as the 9♠ completed the runout, which earned him a double-up.
