Alioto All Out-o

[user75032]

No-Limit Hold'em:

Dario Alioto's stack has been in a death-spiral for most of the afternoon. He moved all in for his last 8,500 from middle position and was called by Eli Elezra from the button and Noah Boeken from the big blind. Boeken and Elezra checked a {4-Spades} {q-Spades} {4-Diamonds} flop. When the turn fell a third spade, {3-Spades} , Boeken led out for 12,000. Elezra flashed the {3-Clubs} and mucked, leaving the all-in Alioto alone with Boeken. Alioto was in need of serious help; his {k-Spades} {k-Diamonds} had been overtaken by Boeken's {10-Spades} {9-Spades} . The river blanked {j-Diamonds} to end Alioto's run.
