Jacks Good for Arieh

Over on Josh Arieh's table there was a {8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board showing and well over 10,000 already in the pot. It was on Arieh to act first and he checked it over to his one opponent. The player bet 8,00 and after much deliberation, Arieh made the call.

A {3-Clubs} on the river would see Arieh again check and this time Arieh would check behind. Here is how the cards looked at showdown.

Arieh: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Arieh's jacks were enough to scoop up the pot as he now sits with a very healthy stack of more than 150,000.
