Team Pro Arias Chipping Up

Jorge Arias
Jorge Arias

There are still two PokerStars Team Pros in this event, and right now it's the Team Online pro -- Jorge Arias -- who is making the most noise. Arias is sitting to the right of Bryan Micon. The two were sitting in the blinds for a heads-up flop that came out {k-Clubs} {7-Spades} {a-Clubs}. Arias led into Micon for 6,100 and Micon called.

Both players checked the {j-Spades} turn. When the river paired the board, {j-Hearts}, Arias fired another 13,800. Micon thought it over before folding.

After several years of multiple cashes at the WSOP, Arias, a native of Venezuela, had an off-year in 2009 with just one cash. He's already secured his first cash of 2010 and now is gunning for a deep run.
