Daniel Alaei Doubles Through Roland de Wolfe

Daniel Alaei was short stacked and all in preflop with {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} against Roland de Wolfe's {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}. As the dealer was putting out the board, another player mentioned that he had folded a five, and Alaei was down to a single out.

The turn card was -- a 5.

The river was a blank, and Daniel Alaei doubled up with a set of fives, increasing his stack to 278,000. Roland de Wolfe still has a ton of chips with 1,230,000.
