Lemaire Ousts Arieh

Hugo Lemaire, who recently took fourth in the $5,000 Mixed-Max event for $162,443, just knocked out Josh Arieh over at Table 7. Arieh raised preflop to 800 from the button and Lemaire three-bet to 2,000 from the small blind. Arien came along for the ride and the dealer revealed a {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop. Lemaire bet 1,825, Arieh quickly moved all in, and Lemaire nearly beat him into the pot.

Arieh: {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Lemaire: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}

Arieh was looking for an ace or a diamond to double up and cripple Lemaire, but the {10-Spades} turn and {3-Hearts} provided no help to the former WSOP Main Event final tablist. Lemaire increased his stack to 26,000, and Arieh made his way out of the Brasilia Room.
