Altergott Takes and Takes From Arieh

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

From under the gun Max Altergott opened with a raise to 7,500. He was called by the small blind as well as Josh Arieh in the big blind.

The flop was {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and action checked to Altergott who put out another bet for 11,000. Only Arieh called.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and Arieh checked again. Altergot bet once more, making it 24,000 and Arieh called again.

The river was the {10-Spades} and Arieh checked. Altergott checked behind. Arieh showed his {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for thrid pair but it was no good as Altergott was holding {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for an overpair to the board and that would earn him the pot.
