Alaei Has Two Hearts

Brian Haack kicked off the action with an under-the-gun raise. Jacobo Fernandez called from the button, as did Daniel Alaei and Matt Glantz in the blinds.

The flop rolled out {Q-Hearts} {8-Spades} {7-Spades}, and Haack continued out with a bet. All three opponents called. The turn was the {7-Hearts}, and Haack let the action check through him this time. Fernandez was last to act, and he took the opportunity to fire a bet of his own. Alaei and Glantz called, while Haack got out of the way. Fifth street brought the {4-Hearts}, and all three players checked.

Alaei tabled {A-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {8-Hearts}, and nobody could match it. With his heart flush, Alaei scoops the pot and works his way up to 135,000.
