D'Alesandro Crushes New Table

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Chip Leader Dave D'Alesandro
Chip Leader Dave D'Alesandro

Dave D'Alesandro had just been moved to a new table when he found the kind of action he'd been missing all day.

He bumped it 3,500 and Timothy Emmerton, starting the hand with about 135,000, three-bet, making it 7,500. D'Alesandro four-bet to 19,500 and Emmerton called.

D'Alesandro then fired 24,000 at the {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop, Emmerton shoved and D'Alesandro called immediately with {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

Emmerton held {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and he was drawing pretty thin with his tournament life and a huge pot on the line. The turn brought the {4-Hearts} and the river was the {a-Spades}, ending Emmerton's run and putting D'Alesandro above 300k and back into the lead in with the biggest hand of the tournament so far.
