Arnold Doubles Through Meruga

Level 22

Big O

Pearce Arnold raised from the button and was three-bet the pot by Shanmukha Meruga in the big blind for almost all of Arnold's stack. Arnold moved all-in and the players were off to see five cards with Arnold's tournament life at risk.

Pearce Arnold: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Shanmukha Meruga: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}, giving Arnold a straight. He has since chipped up further and is right back in the mix with over 600,000 chips.
