Held Doubles Through Arieh
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Approximately 400,000 was in the middle when Josh Arieh bet 200,000 on the board of 9♠J♦9♣. Konstantin Held chose to raise for the remainder of his 310,000 before being called by Arieh.
Konstantin Held: J♠J♣Q♦10♥
Josh Arieh: K♠10♠9♦4♥
Held's flopped boat was trouble for Arieh's flopped trips. The runout of 8♣7♦ did not offer an escape valve for Arieh as Held dragged in the pot.
