A pot of 40,000 had been built by the river with the completed board reading 
.
Jean LeBlond bets 25,000 from early position and gets raised to 65,000 by Josh Arieh in middle position. Leblond quickly moves all in and Arieh is left to a decision.
With about 45,000 behind, most of Arieh’s stack is already committed to the pot. After a minute or so of thought, he makes the call.
“The nuts,” says LeBlond, rolling over 
for the ace-high flush.
The still lucky-feeling newlywed mucks his hand and wishes his opponent good luck as he leaves the table.
Jean Leblond – 300,000
Josh Arieh – eliminated
