Alaei Caramba! Double Bustout

Timoshenko: gracious in defeat
Timoshenko: gracious in defeat
Daniel Alaei may well be close to pipping Florian Langmann from being the end-of-day leader. It started with a cutoff Yevgeniy Timoshenko raise, then reraised by Alaei. Sandor Demjan came along for the ride, but it was going to be bumpier than he thought. Timoshenko promptly moved all-in for 36,200 more. After a dwell, Alaei also moved in! Demjan, too, got the rest of his chips in the middle.

Timoshenko: {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}
Alaei: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Demjan: {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Spades} {10-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {4-Spades} to give a big pot to Alaei, whose stack has gone nowhere but up all day.
