McKellar Trips Up Arieh

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Pierce McKellar raised to 8,000 from under the gun and Josh Arieh called from middle position. The big blind called and they went three handed to the {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop.

The big blind checked and McKellar continued with a bet of 13,000. Arieh called and they went heads up to the {9-Spades} turn card. McKellar checked and Arieh bet 21,000.

McKellar called and both players checked when the {a-Diamonds} hit the river. McKellar turned over {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} for trip aces with a king kicker and Arieh fired his hand face down into the muck.
