Walking Chips or No Chips at All?
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Josh Arieh already had his backpack on when he raised to 70,000 from under the gun. Roman Hrabec reraised on the button and Arieh splashed in the last of his 20,000 chips.
Josh Arieh: A♣J♣10♠4♣
Roman Hrabec: A♥Q♦10♦6♥
The board ran out Q♠9♥3♠J♠6♦ and Hrabec made two pair to eliminate Arieh near the money.
"Yo, Josh! The tournament is over this way!" Ben Lamb shouted as Arieh was leaving the tournament area.
"I've got walking chips!" Arieh spouted back.
