Big Hands:
Dario Minieri Eliminated With Second Nuts
Dario Minieri raised under-the-gun to 6,000 and was reraised by an opponent to his left. The player in the small blind made it three bets and Minieri called the last 5,100 left in his very short stack. The player to Minieri’s left called and three players saw a flop of K
J4. After betting between the two players in the side pot, the A6 was eventually exposed for the nut flush and Minieri exposed the Q7 for the flopped second nuts. Minieri was drawing almost dead on the flop and was eliminated when his runner-runner straight flush failed to come.
Daniel Alaei Knocks Out Opponent
On a board of Q
52
, Daniel Alaei called the all-in bet of William Cole. Cole exposed the AK and was out flopped by the Q
J of Alaei. The 10 hit the turn and the 6 hit the river, building the two-time bracelet winner’s stack to 120,000.
