Lawsons' Fours Gives Him Another Double
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ted Lawson raised on the button to 22,000 and was three-bet all in for his last 200,000 by Josh Arieh in the small blind.
After making a smirk at Arieh, he flicked in a chip and was at risk for elimination.
Ted Lawson: 4♠4♦
Josh Arieh: A♠Q♣
It was Lawson ahead with his pocket fours, however the K♥5♦J♣ board did give Arieh additional straight outs to go along with his two over cards.
The 6♦ on the turn was no help for Arieh, and the 3♣ on the river completed the runout, to give Lawson the double up with his pair of fours.
