Massive Pot for Chris Day as Anaras Alekberovas Busts Out

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Anaras Alekberovas raised to15,600 from the small blind and was met by a three-bet from big stack Chris Day in the big blind. Alekberovas was hardly short himself and called.

The dealer put out a flop of {j-Spades}{7-Clubs}{a-Clubs}.

Alekberovas liked the flop and bet big, but it seemed that Day liked it even better and re-raised all in putting Alekberovas at risk for his tournament life.

Alekberovas wasted little time in calling and tabled the {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. He was in trouble though as Day had him crushed with the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {3-Hearts}, followed by the {q-Clubs} river, and a massive pot was shipped to Day while Alekberovas was sent to the rail. Day is up to approximately 240,000.
