Hand #13 - Daniel Alaei Doubles Through Mikael Thuritz

Daniel Alaei
Daniel Alaei

The button is with Vladimir Schmelev in Seat 3. Mikael Thuritz raises to 110,000 from the cutoff with John Juanda making the call in the small blind. The action is then with Daniel Alaei in the big blind who announces he is all in for his last 1.325 million. Thuritz quickly moves all in over the top, as Juanda gets out of the way.

Alaei: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Thuritz: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The board is spread {4-Spades}{10-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Alaei spikes his ace on the turn to double up to over 2.7 million chips.
