Don't Live a Little, Lose Alioto

Not Alioto of chips
Italian maestro Dario Alioto is now out after a succession of two losing hands. The first was against Henning Granstad, who raised it up to 2,000 preflop with pocket queens. Alioto made it 5,700 and Granstad called. On the T-9-2 flop, Alioto led for 7,500, Granstad shoved and Alioto mucked.

Several hands later, it was Alioto who was all in, Granstad's preflop raise with pocket sevens being called in two places, before Alioto opted to push all in with pocket fives. He manage to dodge Gradstad, but not the next player who made the call with nines. No help, and Alioto was gone.
