D'Auria and Arjang Trade Places

Donnie D'Auria, meet Payman Arjang. Payman Arjang, meet Donnie D'Auria. Arjang led out for 100,000 on a flop of {9-Spades} {5-Spades} {10-Hearts}. D'Auria checked how much Arjang was playing (about 400,000), then moved all in. Arjang quickly called and tabled {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for top two pair. D'Auria showed {K-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} for two overcards and a gutshot draw. When the {2-Diamonds} hit the turn, D'Auria was down to only a jack to squeeze out the victory and eliminate Arjang. The river was a face card, but it was a useless {K-Diamonds}.

After the chips were shipped to Arjang, he stacked up at roughly 800,000. D'Auria, the WPT Boot Camp freeroller, is down to 425,000.
