Arieh Leads The Pack

Josh Arieh would be very close to our chip leader at the first break in play after a series of big hands and big pots went his way in the final minutes of play in that level.

Arieh fired 1,200 on the flop, called 1,500 on the turn before raising a bet of 4,000 to 11,000 on the river on a board of {J-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. His opponent made the call and Arieh collected the pot with his {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

A few moments late Arieh was happy to check-call on all three streets on a board of {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. Arieh tabled {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} to rake in another big pot.

Arieh is up to 78,000 chips at the first break.
