: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
In two hands, Daniel Alaei's stack has gone from 100,000 to 1.1 million chips, giving him over 13 big blinds.
After quadrupling up, Alaei moved all in the very next hand for 460,000 from early position. Phil Laak called on the button, and both blinds folded.
Alaei: 
Laak: 
Laak was in great shape to score a knockout and push his stack back above two million chips, and the 
flop whiffed Alaei's hand completely, but the 
spiked on the turn to give him a pair of aces. The 
bricked on the river, and Alaei doubled to over 1.1 million chips.
Laak fell to 1.175 million.
