Alaei Wins Showdown With King-High

[user67765]

Daniel Alaei raised from middle position before Matt Glantz re-popped it from the cutoff. Alaei called and they took a flop of {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

. Alaei checked, Glantz bet and Alaei made the call.

On the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

turn the action was similar with Alaei checking and then calling the bet from Glantz. The river was the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

and both players checked.

Alaei showed just king-high with his {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{7-Spades}

but Glantz couldn't beat it as he tossed his cards into the muck! As we get short-handed the aggression is certainly kicking in! Alaei is at 330,000 with Glantz back down to 240,000.
