Josh Arieh Makes Great Call

Josh Arieh
Josh Arieh
Josh Arieh has just increased his stack to 184,000 after a very impressive call.

Andy Black bet 3,000 and Josh Arieh called. The player in the big blind then raised the pot, prompting a fold from Black. Arieh made the call and the flop came:

{9-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}

The unknown player bet 20,000, which Arieh called.

The turn brought the {K-Diamonds}, and the player in the big blind pushed all in, having Arieh covered.

After several minutes of thinking, Josh Arieh made the call, showing {5-Hearts} {3-Spades} {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds} for bottom two pair.

His opponent had {J-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} for an inside stright draw and flush draw.

The river brought the {4-Spades}, and Josh Arieh doubled up.
