Martirosyan Calls The River 'Bluff'
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
After the board read with 30,000 in the pot, Artur Martirosyan had lead from the small blind 15,000 into Simon Higgins.
Higgins responded by raising to 65,000 and the Russian pro called him down and showed for a pair of fives. Higgins turned over and was surprised as he thought he had a straight apparently.
''I thought I had three-six! I would've called you if you shoved...Though I probably would have checked my cards first'', claimed Higgins.
