Stop the Slaughter -- Arieh Wins a Pot

[user75032]

Josh Arieh has turned his fortunes around with a pot against Billy "The Croc" Argyros. Arieh was the preflop aggressor, with a raise that Argyros called from the big blind. Argyros then check-called when Arieh bet on the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

flop.

Both players checked the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

turn. On the river {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

, Argyros led out for 15,000, a bet that Arieh raised to 45,000. Argyros called, then mucked his cards when Arieh showed him {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

for a straight.

With that pot, Arieh is back up to over 600,000, while Argyros falls to 355,000.
