Josh Arieh limped into the pot under the gun, and he was followed in by Steve Zolotow, two unknown players, and Shaun Deeb in the small blind. From the big, Tom Dwan snuck in a raise, and everyone splashed the extra bet into the pot nearly simultaneously.
The flop came

appeared on the turn. Dwan check-called another bet there, and he did the same following the 
river.
Arieh showed down 
, and his straight to the king was good enough for the pot.
"All right," Dwan said immediately. "Who wants to book me for $15,000?" Steve Zolotow was obviously hungry for action, but he had no idea what Durrrr meant by his offer. It took about two minutes of Deeb and Dwan awkwardly explaining the scenario before Zolotow passed.
