Niveau 11 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Clemens Von Blanckenburg raised to 18,000 from early position and found one caller in Artur Martirosian in the big blind.

Both players checked on the Q♣7♦6♥ flop and then Martirosian led out for 22,000 on the 2♦ turn. Von Blanckenburg called.

The 9♥ completed the board and Martirosian fired 66,000 into the middle. Von Blanckenburg tanked a while but eventually tossed in a call.

Martirosian turned over J♣10♣7♣3♦ and Von Blanckenburg revealed A♦K♠Q♠10♦ for a winning pair of queens to take down the pot.
