Action folded around to Erick Lindgren on the button and he raised to 30,000. Tom Dwan called from the small blind and Dario Alioto reraised all in for 200,000 from the big blind. Lindgren called and Dwan announced a reraise. Dwan reraised for 240,000 more and Lindgren made the call.

Lindgren: {10-?}

Dwan:

Alioto:

After the hand, Dwan was left with just 11,000 chips while Lindgren soared to approximately 1,100,000. After the hand Mike Matusow came over to console Dwan. "Don't worry durrr," he said, "if anybody can do it you can." "When I won 150,000 the other day, I typed 'I am durrr.'"

Dario Alioto was eliminated in tenth place and leaves with $34,700 to ease the pain.
