Arieh Deemed "The Luckiest Player in the Game"
Josh Arieh raised to 2,100 in early position and was called by Daniel Ott in the hijack and Aaron Frei in the small blind. The flop came 10♦9♦8♠ and Arieh continued with a bet of 3,500. Ott quickly folded but Frei check-raised to 11,000 which Arieh called.
The turn brought the 4♦ and Frei checked again. Arieh counted out a bet of 13,000 and Frei stuck around for the K♣ on the river. Frei checked once more and Arieh reluctantly checked it back. "I can't believe I'm checking this," Arieh said.
"You're the luckiest player in the game," Frei said as he revealed Q♠J♠ for a straight. "You probably have a flush."
"I'm the luckiest player in the game?" Arieh questioned as he sheepishly mucked his cards.
Frei continued to ramble about how many more chips he should have won and how the hand played out while he collected the pot.
