No-Limit Hold'em
This hand got off to an interesting start straightaway when the dealer mistakingly announced the blinds to be 50-100 rather than 25-50. There had been a call from a middle-position player and a raise to 425 from Dario Alioto before the error was spotted. A supervisor ruled that the hand would play out at the higher limit before going back down to 25-50 on the next hand.
After Alioto made his raise Dwan re-raised from the button, making it 1,150 to go. Alioto announced he was all in and Dwan quickly made the call.
Alioto: 
Dwan: 
Dwan was up and out of his seat before the flop of 
had arrived and had his personal items collected by the time the 
sealed his fate on the turn. The river was a meaningless 
and Dwan was out the door.
According to Steve Wong who is seated over at Phil Ivey's table, Ivey and Dwan had a last-longer bet worth $100,000. If that's true and Ivey has now won the bet, he's on a ridiculous freeroll right now.
