Artur Martirosian opened to 35,000 from the hijack before Kayhan Mokri three-bet to 104,000 from the cutoff. Martirosian called, then check-called for 82,000 on the K?Q?5? flop, which brought in the 9? turn. Both players checked and saw the 10? river.
Martirosian used up a time bank before moving all in for 504,000 and after a count, Mokri called as the bigger stack. Martirosian tabled his Q?10? for the flush, which bested Mokri's straight as he had the K?J?.
Mokri was then all in on the next hand with 9x9x for his last 330,000 after getting into a raising war with Timothy Adams. The Canadian called the all-in with Q?J? to put Mokri at risk. Adams' hand ended up being the winner following the board runout and the start of day chip leader was eliminated.
