D'Alessio More Than Doubles; Barzantny Busts
On one of the first hands back from break, Wojciech Barzantny jammed from early position for 270,000 and Ferdinando D'Alessio moved in over the top for 1,020,000 out of the cutoff. Michail Manolakis, who was seated in the big blind, took a peek at his cards, then instantly called with the covering stack.
Wojciech Barzantny: 8♠8♣ 
Ferdinando D'Alessio: A♥10♦
Michail Manolakis: K♠K♣
Manolakis, with cowboys, had the chance to send two players to the rail. However, the 7♠A♠Q♣ flop put D'Alessio in pole position with a pair of aces. D'Alessio improved to two pair on the 10♣ turn while Manolakis picked up a straight draw. The 5♥ completed the board and D'Alessio's two pair won the pot.
Barzantny hit the rail while D'Alessio more than doubled up, and Manolakis was left with around 12 big blinds.
