Mao Doubles Up
Level 27
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Renji Mao opened to 320,000 from the button. Dario Alioto in the big blind raised, Mao immediately announced all-in for 1,630,000 and Alioto snap-called.
Renji Mao: K♥K♦Q♥2♠
Dario Alioto: Q♣J♠J♦3♣
"That's good start," Alioto said when he hit a three on 3♠8♦4♣. The A♣ open opened a flush draw for him, but the 4♠ river kept Mao's kings in the lead, and he doubled up.
