From the button, Trevor Uyesugi opened to 280,000, and Daniel Alaei was thinking sinister thoughts. From the big blind, he stared down Uyesugi's small remaining stack, then announced a covering rereaise. Uyesugi was promptly all in for 405,000 total, and the cards were on their backs:
Alaei: 
Uyesugi: 
The flop was a good start for Uyesugi as it came down 
to pull him into the lead with two pair. The 
on the turn was an awfully dangerous sweat card, and the 
on the river was the death knell for Uyesugi. Alaei makes his trips to win the pot, taking the rest of his opponent's chips and sending him out the door in fifth place. It's not what he wanted today, but Uyesugi will pick up almost $200,000 as a consolation prize before he leaves the building.
