Level 8
: 200/400, 50 ante
We watched one player raise to 650 from early position and Clinton Alford reraise all-in for his last 3,450 from the hijack. The player in the cutoff also decided to move all-in and the original raiser got out of the way.
Showdown:

Opponent:

on the turn kept him in the lead. After the 
arrived on the river, his pair of nines had held up for the double.
