Alavez Survives
Briant Alavez moved all in a first time from the cutoff. Braxton Dunaway on the button raised to 580,000 and was called by Erwann Pecheux in the big blind.
Both Pecheux and Dunaway checked the 10♣7♣3♥ flop, but Pecheux bet 900,000 on the 2♥ turn to make Dunaway fold.
Briant Alavez: 10♠9♥
Erwann Pecheux: 9♦9♠
Alavez flopped top pair and managed to keep the lead as the 2♥4♠ runout was revealed and he scooped the pot.
In the next hand, Alavez was forced all in in the big blind with 5♠3♣ and faced Yaniv Peretz who opened from the button with K♣5♥ and on 10♠6♥4♣3♦A♠, Alavez managed to double again.
He was then at risk once more in the small blind with 6♠2♥ against Dunaway's 5♠2♣, but they split on K♣A♠2♦A♦Q♣.
Alavez shoved all in again in the next hand but nobody called.
