Phua Wins Big One from Martirosian
Paul Phua was under-the-gun when he raised Artur Martirosian's big blind to 50,000, and Martirosian didn't seem to take too kindly to that as he three-bet him to 130,000. Phua called and the players went heads up to a flop with over 160,000 in the pot.
The flop was 
and Martirosian led out for 50,000 and Phua simply called.
But on the turn 
, Martirosian made it a little more with a 105,000 sizing and Phua went into the tank. After using one of his time banks, he eventually decided on a call. The pot now had now grown to roughly 475,000.
On the river, the 
came to pair the board, and this saw a check from Martirosian. After some thinking, Phua then slung out six green chips for a bet of 150,000, and now Martirosian was in the tank. All out of time chips, as the clock reached zero he was forced to make a decision or his hand was dead, and right at the last second, he made the call.
Phua then flipped over 
for top two pair, aces and kings, and Martirosian sucked his teeth and mucked his hand.
Phua was pushed the massive pot and his stack grew to over a million.
