Alaei Doubles Through Affleck

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Action folded to Matt Affleck in the hijack and he threw in a raise to 12,000. David "Bakes" Baker proceeded to make it 30,000 to go from the cutoff. The button folded and Daniel Alaei opted to move all in from the small blind for his last 90,000. Affleck quickly moved all in himself for 163,000 and Baker folded after a moment of deliberation.

Affleck: {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Alaei: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Affleck was in a dominating position but not after the {9-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. Suddenly the tables were turned and Affleck needed to pair his pocket pair. He couldn't do it on the {4-Hearts} turn nor on the {7-Hearts} river. Alaei doubled to 220,000 while Affleck was left with just 73,000.
