Big Stacks Collide
Level 14
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
In a hand between Dan Smith and Artur Martirosian, with both players having close to 10,000,000 in chips, Smith opened to 200,000 on the button and Martirosian called from the big blind.
The flop rolled out 8?K?7? and Martirosian checked over to Smith, who put out a continuation-bet of 100,000. Martirosian responded with a check-raise to 450,000, which Smith called.
Martirosian continued applying pressure on the 6? turn in the form of a bet of 1,450,000 and, after some deliberation, Smith made the call.
The river was no different after the dealer laid out the 4?, prompting Martirosian to put out a bet of 3,600,000. Smith would go in the tank momentarily before deciding on the fold.
