Arnault Triples Up
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
After Olivier Arnault open-shoved for 18,100 from the button, Ehsan Amiri in the small blind three-bet to 40,000. Jacob Amsellem, who was already involved in this hand from the hijack, jammed for 119,000, putting Amiri in a tough spot. He eventually folded what he later said was queens.
Olivier Arnault: J♥J♠ 
Jacob Amsellem: 8♦8♠
Amiri couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Amsellem's hand and that he would have hit a set on 6♠5♠Q♣3♥J♦ if he had called. "I would be the chip leader," he added, while Arnault was tripling up.
