Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
When we arrived at Table 382, Josh Arieh had a bet of 18,000 in front of him - roughly half of the pot - and the board was completed 
. His opponent, Igor Kurganov, was in the tank.
Kurganov sat silently in thought for a few minutes, mumbling to himself now and then, and finally called.
"I'm concerned," Arieh said. "Nine-high."
Kurganov revealed 
for a pair of tens, and Arieh mucked.
"I'm very concerned," Arieh said once more. "Nice hand."
"I quit," Erik Seidel said after the hand with a big grin on his face. "I'm going home."
