, but the board ran out {2-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

to leave him crippled.

West then moved in with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

from the small blind and Daniel Alaei made the pot-committed call with {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

from the big blind. The board landed {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{9-Hearts}

and Alaei spiked a pair to send West to the rail.
