Arieh Rivers Three-Quarters

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Josh Arieh opened to 1,800 under the gun and was called by Lawrence Brandt in middle position, Naseem Salem in the hijack, and Aaron Kupin on the button.

On the 953 flop, it checked to Salem who potted for 8,700. Kupin folded before Arieh repotted to 34,800. Brandt folded, Salem was all-in for roughly 57,000 and Arieh called.

Naseem Salem: AKK2 All in
Josh Arieh: AK32

Both had the nut low draw and Arieh had a flush draw, but Salem was in the lead with kings.

The 8 turn completed the low, and the 4 river gave Arieh the flush, and he went from one quarter the three quarters.
