Jon Sofen

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Over the past four years, Josh Arieh has been one of the top few performers at the World Series of Poker (WSOP). This summer, however, hasn't gone quite so smoothly.

But on Tuesday, he has a golden opportunity to right the ship and win his seventh WSOP bracelet, putting him in a tie for seventh place all time. The poker star from Atlanta, Georgia entered the final table in the $1,500 Eight Game Mixed event second in chips with seven players remaining.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

A player opened to 7,000 from early position and was called by Talal Shakerchi in middle position as well as Pedro Oliveira in the big blind.

Action checked to Shakerchi on the Q♣10♦Q♠ flop and he bet out 7,000. Both of his opponents called to keep things three-handed heading to the turn.

Oliveira checked again following the 2♣ turn, prompting the early position player to fire off 22,000. Shakerchi opted to flat while Oliveira vacated the pot.

The early position player bet once more after the 2♦ river completed the board. Shakerchi thought for a moment, then called only to muck as his opponent flipped over A♥A♦ to put a dent in the British businessman's stack.

Player	Chips	Progress
Talal Shakerchi	250,000 165,000	165,000
Pedro Oliveira	205,000 49,300	49,300

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Gregory Fournier checked from early position to Jiang Pu on a flop of 8♣10♣J♥. Pu then made a bet from the hijack, which Fournier raised to 35,000.

Pu shoved all in for a little over 100,000 chips and Fournier immediately called to put his opponent at risk.

Jiang Pu: A♥A♦ All in
Gregory Fournier: K♥K♦

The Q♦ turn made Fournier open-ended, and he hit the 9♥ river to make a straight and crack Pu's aces with his kings. Both players made a picture of the runout before Pu said his goodbyes from the Main Event.

On another table, Eric Wasserson was one of the recently eliminated players.

Saar Wilf	390,000 77,000	77,000

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

There were over 100,000 chips in the middle on a board of 3♠K♥A♣A♦A♥ when Tyler Hatchel shoved into his opponent for around 250,000 effective. Hatchel's opponent was deep into the tank and didn't seem to believe the story that Hatchel was telling. Eventually, the opponent pushed his stack of chips into the middle.

Hatchel tabled 7♥7♠ for aces full of sevens, and the opponent stared back at the board & his cards before tossing them into the muck for nobody to see, then vacated the tournament area.

"I was value betting," remarked Hatchel.

Kevin Killeen opened to 6,000 from early position and was called by Dan Shak on the button for a heads-up pot.
