Marashlian Unhappily Pays Price
Level 37
: 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Shant Marashlian had barely turned his new chair around so he could sit with it facing backward when he was faced with an all-in from Toby Price in the hijack.
In his first hand at a new table, Marashlian defended his big blind with a call.
Toby Price: J♣8♠
Shant Marashlian: A♦4♣
The runout went extremely well for Price from the start, as he flopped trip eights and took a double-up though the full board of 8♥8♦A♠4♥Q♠.
"Jack-eight, really?" a stunned Marashlian said.
