Marshall Pagaling check-folded his big blind while Alsup called and the 
fell on the turn. Vanalstyne moved all-in for a little over a 30,000 starting stack and Alsup snap-called.
Rich Alsup: 
James Vanalstyne: 
Alsup pulled ahead after turning a gutshot straight and the 
river eliminated Vanalstyne from the tournament.
