Arieh Knocked Out as Levenberry Finds Two Pair
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Cristian Gutierrez kicked off the action from the button with a raise to 200,000. Cuba Levenberry called in the small blind, and Josh Arieh, sitting short in the big blind, took a moment before committing his last 275,000. Both opponents called to send the hand three ways to the flop.
The dealer fanned 5♣2♥K♣, and Levenberry wasted no time jamming his remaining 335,000. Gutierrez quickly got out of the way, sending it to showdown.
Josh Arieh: 10♠4♦3♦3♠
Cuba Levenberry: A♣Q♥6♣5♥
Levenberry held a pair of fives with overcards, while Arieh was chasing backdoor straight outs or trips. The Q♠ on the turn improved Levenberry to two pair, and the 10♦ river wasn’t enough for Arieh, who made a quick exit as his tournament came to an end.
