Affleck Runs Into Alaei's Pocket Nines Yet Again

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Matt Affleck
Matt Affleck

Daniel Alaei raised to 13,000 from early position and was called by Ty Reiman on the button. Matt Affleck was next to act in the small blind and decided to move all in for his last 55,000. Alei moved all in over the top to drive Reiman from the hand and it was heads up to the flop.

Affleck: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Alaei: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The last time Affleck had a big pocket pair and Alaei had pocket nines, things did not turn out in Affleck's favor; however, this time would be different. The {J-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop delivered a set for Affleck while the {Q-Clubs} turn and {8-Diamonds} river ensured his double. Affleck currently sits with 131,000 while Alaei dropped to 136,000.
