The Chad & Jesse Poker Show: Josh Arieh Talks Hot 2023 WSOP; David Williams on Bracelet Stolen in Home Robbery

Level 14

On the latest PokerNews Podcast episode, Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen continue The Chad & Jesse Poker Show straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

In the penultimate show of the summer, Chad & Jesse welcome two guests to the show starting with Josh Arieh, who has won two bracelets this summer and was nominated for the Poker Hall of Fame. Arieh talked about the WSOP back in the late 1990s, his career resurgence, Poker Stake, and shares a fun story involving Ted Forrest and the late Layne Flack.

The other guest is 2004 WSOP Main Event runner-up David Williams, who was fresh of winning a Flip & Go. He talks about his history in that event, how his WSOP gold bracelet and diamond toothpick were stolen in a home robbery, and why he wouldn’t do Master Chef again.

Chad and Jesse then do a new "Calling the Clock" segment in which they offer quick two-minute dialogues for topics on “The Board.”

Kondratenko and Shim Collide in Limit Hold'em

Level 14

Limit Hold'em

Action caught up to a hand between Albert Shim and Volodymyr Kondratenko, with Shim betting the river on a board reading J5359 and Kondratenko raising.

After a moment of deliberation, Shim, with only 16,000 chips remaining, decided to three-bet 10,000 of those chips, sending Kondratenko into the tank.

"Can I show my hand?" Kondratenko asked the dealer, who replied no, as it would be declared dead.

Kondratenko ultimately decided to fold face up, showing down AA.

Shim mentioned, "I cannot show, but you know you made a good fold."

Bruschi Takes From Friedman

Level 14

Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better

Action was picked up in a three way pot between Adam Friedman in the small blind, Renan Bruschi in the big blind, and another player on the button.

The flop of 932 saw Friedman bet and Bruschi raise which only Friedman called.

Action checked through on the Q turn to the J river where Friedman checked to Bruschi and snap called when he bet.

Bruschi turned over AJJ5 for a rivered set and Friedman frustratingly mucked his hand as Bruschi took down the pot.

At another table, Jeff Madsen was eliminated from the tournament.

Altizer Eliminated by Perry

Level 13
Jacob Perry
Jacob Perry

Limit Hold'em

Short on chips, Von Altizer was all-in preflop, with Jacob Perry making the call.

Von Altizer: KK
Jacob Perry: AJ

Altizer was in great shape to double, but would need to avoid aces and diamond-heavy runouts, which was the case on the 932 flop.

However, the dealer rolled over the A on the turn and Altizer was not able to catch back up on the 8 river, exiting the tournament in Level 13.
