Martirosian Leads the Turn

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jun Obara opened to 5,500 under the gun and action made its way around to Artur Martirosian, who defended his big blind. The flop dropped and Martirosian checked. Obara made a continuation-bet of 6,000 and Martirosian called.

The turn came and Martirosian led out with a bet of 10,000. Obara thought for a couple of seconds and sent his cards to the muck, resulting in the pot being sent Martirosian's way.

Martirosian started the day with 50,000 and now finds himself having nearly tripled that; meanwhile, Obara has lost around one-third of his stack in the first one-and-two-thirds levels of the day, though his 185,000 still remains firmly above the average stack of 150,000 in the room with 84 players remaining.
