Arieh checked again on the 3♣ river and folded as Shakerchi sized up to 500,000.
A few hands later, Hal Rotholz opened to 65,000 from the hijack and Matthew Ashton three-bet to 180,000 to his immediate left. Rotholz called.
Rotholz checked on the J♣5♣3♥ flop and Ashton continued for 140,000. Rotholz check-raised to 450,000 and the 2013 PPC champion folded with further fight.
