Daniel Alaei Makes a Big Call

We caught up to this hand on the turn. With the board reading {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, Daniel Alaei bet 37,000. His lone opponent, Hyon Kim, raised 50,000 more. Alaei pondered briefly before calling. The river brought the {Q-Clubs}. Alaei checked, and Kim bet 130,000. Alaei made the call and Kim said, "I have a nine." Alaei silently rolled over his {K-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Kim mucked. After the hand, Kim sits with 555,000 in chips, while Alaei is up to 575,000.
