On the Featured Table, Daniel Alaei has the button in seat 5, he limps for 60,000, Jerry Yang raises from the small blind to 260,000, Alaei moves all in for 1.54 million, and Yang calls with {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Alaei shows {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}, and he'll need to improve to stay alive. Kenny Tran says that he folded A-10.

The flop comes {Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and Yang retains the lead with his ten kicker. The turn card is the {8-Clubs}, and Alaei needs to catch a five on the river to stay alive.

The river card is the -- {5-Spades}! The crowd applauds as Daniel Alaei catches a three-outer on the river to survive and double up to over 3.1 million in chips.
