Another Double Up for Arieh

This last round of hands is working out quite well for Josh Arieh.

On a flop of {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Andrew Lichtenberger led out for 38,000, Arieh pushed all in, and Lichtenberger instacalled. Lichtenberger showed {J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for trip jacks, but was outkicked by Arieh's {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and the river the {10-Spades}, and after toiling as the short stack much of the night,
Arieh has now chipped up to 339,000.

Meanwhile, Lichtenberger slips to 108,000.
