Arroyos Back at the Helm

Level 36 : 600,000/1,200,000, 0 ante

Tim Andrew completed in the small blind and called when big blind Pete Arroyos potted for 3,600,000.

They saw the {3-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds} hit the felt and both checked to the {5-Diamonds} turn. Andrew checked again but Arroyos fired a pot-size bet of 7.2 million. Andrew immediately called.

The {5-Diamonds} river was quickly checked through and Arroyos announced two pair, showing {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}.

"Two pair is good," Andrew said and mucked.

Freeroll for Cicchelli

Level 36 : 600,000/1,200,000, 0 ante

In a three-way limped pot, Robert Chicchelli and Tim Andrew checked the {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and Pete Arroyos potted for 3.6 million on the button.

Cicchelli tanked for about two minutes and then raised all in for about 8 million. Arroyos called and they both showed the eight-high straight.

Cicchelli, however, had {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Spades} and was freerolling against {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

"Yeah, baby. Freeroll!" Cicchelli shouted in excitement, hoping to scoop the pot.

"Spade one time!" he continued.

The {2-Clubs} changed nothing and neither did the {8-Diamonds} river, leaving the pot split between Cicchelli and Arroyos.

Tim Andrew made it 2.8 million under the gun and Pete Arroyos accepted the price in the small blind. The {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} flop was checked but Arroyos fired the maximum bet on the {10-Spades} turn. Andrew fairly quickly cut out calling chips and slid them forward.

The river was the {K-Clubs} and Arroyos placed in a tower of chips, covering Andrew's remaining 7,325,000. Andrew called, showing the nuts with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, and Arroyos' hand was thrown in the muck.

Andrew doubled to just over 35 million and took over the pole position from Arroyos.
