Lamanna Does The Lambada
Chris Moorman opened the action with a raise to 5,500 from early position. Alan Curl decided to three-bet to 15,000. David Randall got out of the way Brian Lamanna wasted no time in shoving all in for 38,700. Moorman got out of the way and Curl called.
Curl: 
Lamanna: 
Lamanna was crushed and needed help going to the flop. Curl was excited to see a third ace flop on 
, but horrified when he realized his opponent was holding the queen of spades.
There was no sweat, as the 
rolled off on the turn and Lamanna jumped into the lead. Curl would need the board to pair or to hit the fourth ace in order to send Lamanna home. Unfortunately for Curl, the river was the 
and Lamanna was able to dance into a double up to 88,200.
