Martirosian & Nagy Exchange Pots; Negreanu Folds
Artur Martirosian opened to 175,000 from the cutoff and Gergo Nagy called from the button. It checked through to the river where the board read J♠10♠8♥6♠9♣. Martirosian check-called a bet of 235,000, and mucked his hand after Nagy tabled A♣K♠J♣9♠ for a flush.
As that hand played out, on the other table Daniel Negreanu was in a hand against Robert Cowen. There was 975,000 in the pot on the 6♠4♥9♥6♣J♦ board. Negreanu, in the big blind, check-folded to a bet of 325,000.
Back on Martirosian's table, he raised to 175,000 again. Nagy was the only caller once more.
Nagy called bets of 175,000 and 450,000 on the flop and turn for the board to read K♥6♣4♠8♠5♣. Both players checked the river, where Martirosian's J♣9♠6♥4♣ was good for two pair. Nagy couldn't beat it and returned his cards to the dealer.
