Alaei Falls to Reiman

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Daniel Alaei
Daniel Alaei

Ty Reiman, last year's PCA Main Event runner up, raised to 11,500 and had Daniel Alaei reraise all in. Reiman made the call with his {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} but discovered he far behind the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} of Alaei.

While Alaei seemed to have a double in hand, the flop came down {6-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and made things interesting. Reiman had the only heart so another on the board would give him a flush. The {3-Spades} on the turn wasn't one, but the {3-Hearts} on the river was. Reiman came from behind to eliminate Alaei and increase his own stack all the way up to 762,000, making him our new chip leader.
