Number Two Works for Alioto

We missed the betting action at Table 247, but we saw the look of pain on Sami Kelopuro's face. Having already redeemed his rebuy chips, Kelopuro put Dario Alioto (two rebuy chips still behind) all in. Alioto snap-called with Number Two, 7-6-4-3-2. Kelopuro grimaced as he flashed 7-6-5-4-2.

As Change100 remarked, that's bad enough in triple draw. In single draw it's just brutal.

Kelopuro's stack took a punishing to 13,000 chips (no rebuys left). Alioto is on 16,000 chips (two rebuys left).
