Arieh Makes the Correct Call to Leave Audoli Short
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Heads-up on a board of J♦9♠7♥5♣ with approximately 20,000 already in the middle, Baptiste Audoli bet 16,000 from the big blind and Josh Arieh called from the hijack after a bit of thought.
The Q♦ filled the river and Audoli fired 45,000 into the middle — sending Arieh deep into the tank.
Arieh asked the dealer to spread the pot and he counted out his own stack, clearly struggling with the decision.
After a couple of minutes, Arieh stuck in a call and Audoli could only turn over 10♥4♥ for a bluff.
Arieh revealed A♠9♣ for a pair of nines and was awarded the pot.
"You're sick," Kornuth said to Arieh from across the table.
