Martirosian Busts Livshitz
Gabi Livshitz opened to 500 under the gun and was met with a three-bet to 1,800 by Artur Martirosian in the next seat. Livshitz called.
On the 9?10?3? flop, Livshitz check-called versus a bet of 3,000 from Martirosian.
The 4? rolled off on the turn, and Livshitz again check-called a bet of 8,500 from Martirosian.
The 9? river completed the board, and Livshitz, who had about 17,000 behind, checked once more. Martirosian reached for chips and slid out a bet of 35,000, putting Livshitz to the test for the rest of his stack early in the tournament.
Livshitz immediately spread out his three time banks in front of the dealer and went deep into thought. Eventually, he flicked in a calling chip and was shown the bad news when Martirosian revealed 3?3? for a set of threes.
Livshitz tapped the table, mucked his hand and gathered his things, departing as the first player to bust the tournament.
