Josh Arieh

Down to about 50,000, Josh Arieh opened with a raise to 8,000 from the cutoff and got a caller in the big blind. Both checked the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

flop. The turn was the {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

. The BB bet 11,000 and Arieh called.

The river brought the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

, and when Arieh's opponent bet enough to put him all in, he tanked for a couple of minutes before making the call. Arieh's opponent showed {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

for ace high, meaning Arieh's pair of jacks with {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

were good enough.

Arieh is back up to 102,000.
