Edward Han opened with a raise under the gun to 10,500 and Josh Arieh called next to speak as Dylan Wilkerson called from the big blind.
The flop fell and both Wilkerson and Han checked to Arieh who bet 16,000. Wilkerson folded, but Han check-raised to 37,000. Arieh deliberated for roughly a minute before calling as the turn landed the and Han cut out a bet of 68,000.

Han checked, and Arieh announced he was all in and pushed forward roughly his remaining 123,000 in chips.
