Alaei Sucks Out on Greenberg
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Action folded to Lawrence Greenberg in the small blind and he put in a raise to 8,000. Daniel Alaei was in the big blind and pushed back to the tune of 21,000. Greenberg thought for a moment, grabbed his stack, and moved all in for a total of 60,000. Alaei quickly called and the cards were revealed:
Alaei:
Greenberg:
Big pairs colliding in the blinds is unusual, but at least Greenberg, who was the one at risk, held the better hand. The flop changed nothing and neither did the river. Alaei could only catch a queen on the river to eliminate his opponent. BINK . . . on the river for the two outer. Greenberg was shell shocked as he exited the tournament area. With that, Alaei is up to 220,000.
