Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Matt Alexander risked it all with eights.
Matt Alexander risked it all with eights.

Matt Alexander opened for a raise in middle position and was called by Jim Boone on the button. Chance Lautner three-bet to an unknown amount from the big blind, and Alexander pushed all in for 340,000. Boone folded, and Lautner thought only briefly before making the call.

Alexander: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Lautner: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Alexander had a slight edge in the massive flip with a pair, but Lautner grabbed a big lead when the dealer spread a flop of {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}. The {q-Hearts} and {a-Clubs} completed the board, leaving Alexander busto and Lautner with the chip lead.
