An early position player limps in and Josh Arieh limps behind. The player in the cutoff raises to 1,000 and action folds back around to the first limper, who calls the raise. Arieh moves all in for 4,000 and the original preflop raiser moves his stack all in as well, for 14,000. The early position player folds.

Arieh shows {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

and is up against the {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

.

The flop comes {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

and Arieh maintains his lead in the hand. The turn brings the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

and now Arieh is behind his opponent's broadway straight.

Arieh needs the board to pair and gets it when the dealer slaps down the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

on the river.

Arieh more than doubles up and increases his stack back to 10,000.
