The Grid 089 ft. Kevin Rabichow– Six-Five Offsuit

July 07, 2025

Jennifer brings WPT Champion, Triton analyst and renowned coach Kevin Rabichow to the GRID, to discuss a dramatic hand against Artur Martirosyan from this year’s 25K Heads-up WSOP event.  A heads-up specialist with over 7 Million Dollars in combined live and online earnings, Kevin reveals his top exploits and what he’d love to see more of in future heads-up tournaments. He also explains why mid-stack can be the trickiest stack size, and in fact even more complex than the deep stack game.

Rabichow is hot off the release of his course, The Heads Up Edge: A Tactical Guide to Winning Tournaments: Dominate the Endgame. (You can use the code GRID for 20% off the course, which presents a five-hour crash course in heads-up theory and exploits.)

In round three of the 25K event, Kevin found himself facing high stakes pro Artur Martirosyan, a three-time WSOP bracelet winner with over 26 million dollars in cashes.

The hand was played in the very first level, so they had starting stacks (600K) at the 1K/2.5K blind level.

Kevin opens 65o on the button, and Artur calls.
