Balea Stuns Arbel

Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Picking up the action on the river and the board showing 4?8?5?10?10?, David Arbel bet 15,000 from middle position before Nicolae Balea raised to 70,000 under the gun.
Arbel quickly called and Balea turned over 8?8? for a full house. Arbel buried his head in his hands for a moment before releasing his cards, sending the big pot over to Balea who moved over 400,000.
