Teska Doubles; Arieh Gets Shorter
Level 20
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Gregory Nerenberg fell silent after paying off a double for Roger Teska, who had the winning hand with A♠9♠8♥6♣ on a board of K♣7♦2♠A♥3♠. Teska then hit a straight against Ben Lamb to win another small pot, further boosting his short stack.
One table over, Josh Arieh raised and peeled a three-bet by Mads Amot from one seat over in the hijack. Arieh checked the 5♦4♣3♠ flop and then instantly folded when Amot bet 150,000. The Norwegian won the pot but lost a time bank in the process.
