There’s a massive pot brewing on Table 9 between Jael Lewis in the hijack and Mo Arani, who’s on the button. The board reads and Lewis is all in for 1.875 and Arani announces a call.

Lewis shows for a set of eights, and it beats Arani’s , top two pair.

A tablemate wishes her a nice hand, and she thanks the player, adding that it was a “lucky setup spot” for her to be on the right side of.

Lewis wins another small one afterward and vaults to 5.25 million. Arani falls to 770k.
