Josh Arieh Eliminated

Josh Arieh
Josh Arieh
Josh Arieh raises from the small blind and Steven Burkholder made the call from the small blind. The flop came {Q-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs} and Arieh bet 11,000. Burkholder then raised enough to put him all in. Arieh made the call.

Josh Arieh: {K-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} (top and bottom pair with a backdoor flush draw)
Burkholder: {10-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {8-Spades} {5-Hearts} (pair of eights with a heart flush draw)

The turn was the {7-Hearts} giving Burkholder the flush. Arieh needed a queen or a six to stay alive, but the river brought a meaningless {9-Diamonds} , eliminating him from the tournament.
