Josh Arieh taken out of blogger tourney by Abby17
The chips were down for Arieh in Tuesday's blogger tournament at Bodog Poker.
By Sarah Polson
Fifty-two bloggers showed up to play in the weekly Bodog Poker Blogger Tournament this week, including Josh Arieh with a price on his head.
Josh Arieh didn't get much of a chance to make any moves in the tournament however, as Abby17 took him out fairly early to collect the $100 bounty.
Abby17 found his chance to take out Arieh when the Team Bodog pro decided to make a move with pocket sevens. Abby17 called him down with A-Q and won the race when an ace hit the river.
Arieh went out in 47th place, and Abby17 put his chips to use to earn himself a third-place finish in the tournament.
Coming out on top of it all, however, was StinkyBritches, who won $156 plus T$109 for first place.
The final-table results were:
| Place | Name | Prize |
| 1st | StinkyBritches | $156 + T$109 |
| 2nd | TripJax | $104 + T$109 |
| 3rd | Abby17 | $62.40 + T$109 |
| 4th | RecessRampage2 | $52 + T$109 |
| 5th | emptyman | $41.60 + T$109 |
| 6th | Newinnov | $33.80 |
| 7th | JL514 | $28.60 |
| 8th | raisydaisy22 | $23.40 |
| 9th | TheDutchster | $18.20 |
The blogger tournament costs $11 to enter and takes place each Tuesday at 9:05 p.m. (EDT). The weekly tournaments make up the 18 qualifying tournaments of the Bodog Poker Blogger Tournament Series.
The first event took place in early February and the last one is scheduled for June 3. The top 30% of players in each weekly tournament will be awarded points based on their finish and ranked over the four months.
At the end of the series, the top 18 players will play in the Final Tournament June 10, in which the first-place winner will receive a $12,000 World Series of Poker prize package.
The prize package includes the $10,000 buy-in for the Main Event plus money for travel and accommodation.
