Joni Jouhkimainen raised to 5,600 under the gun. Dario Alioto called in the cutoff, and [Removed:548] defended his big blind. Jouhkimainen continued for 6,500 on the 5♦7♣8♠ flop. Alioto called before [Removed:549] check-folded.

After the hand, Alioto was moved to another table to make space for Frank Brannan, one of the newest entries.
