Arieh Checks Back on the River

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was checked to Josh Arieh on the button with the board reading {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. Arieh bet 11,000, earning a call from James Obst under the gun. Aaron Katz folded from the cutoff.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}, and Obst check-called another 26,000.

With a nice chunk already in the pot, Obst and Arieh saw the {4-Hearts} hit the felt on the river. Obst checked one more time, and Arieh decided to play it safe, checking back.

Obst rolled over his {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} for a turned set, but that same turn card also improved Arieh to a flush as he had {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for the second nuts.
