The face that launched 500K chips

The exiter was an up-and-down Daniel Alaei, who after the recent period of down got his stack in preflop with a dominated {A-?} {7-?} vs. Anthony Giuetti's {A-?} {K-?}. Giuetti became a chip monster with 990,000.

The doubler was Vanessa Rousso, who slightly lessened Giuetti's monster status. Giuetti raised under the gun to 25,000, called by Rousso on the button and big blind David Steicke. The flop came down an interesting {Q-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. Checked to Giuetti, who bet 58,000. Rousso called and Steicke passed. On the {6-Clubs} turn, Giuetti bet 132,000 and Rousso, after a think, moved in.

"I have to call," he said and did so, showing {K-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}, behind her {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}. The river bricked and she's now well over half a million in chips.
