Macaluso Runs Into Aces
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Moments before the break, a player opened from early position and was called by the player to his left.
Luigi Macaluso on the button then squeezed to 5,000 because he thought the initial raiser was too aggressive. However Benoit Chaney in the big blind decided to four-bet to 13,000, making two of his opponents fold. Macaluso then moved all-in for approximately 35,000 and Chaney called.
Luigi Macaluso: Q♥3♠ 
Benoit Chaney: A♠A♥
Macaluso tried to scoop the pot pre flop with his move, but he ran into aces. And even if he hit a pair on Q♦6♦4♦5♥K♣, he was eliminated.
