Carman Cavella Doubles Up

With Ken Aldridge having a commanding chip lead, it finally became "all in" time for Carman Cavella. After Aldridge raised to 270,000, Cavella moved all in for 815,000 total. Aldridge gave the matter some thought, then called for the first all in and call of heads-up play!

Cavella: {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs}
Aldridge: {8-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

Both men were standing as the board rolled out {3-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}. Aldridge momentarily got excited when the river came down, perhaps thinking he had made a straight. But he hadn't made anything and was forced to double Cavella up.
