Hand #104: Dejuante Alexander moved all in on the button for 9,650,000 and got no action.

Hand #105: Pablo Mariz limped in from the small blind, and Alexander checked his option. The flop came {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, and Mariz led out for 600,000. Alexander folded.

Hand #106: Alexander limped in from the small blind, and Alexander Farahi moved all in. Alexander snap-called.

Alexander was at risk with {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for his last 10,050,000, while Farahi held {k-Spades}{9-Spades}.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}, and Farahi flopped a pair of kings and a spade draw. The turn was the {a-Clubs}, putting Alexander in the lead with a pair of aces. The river was the {2-Hearts}, and Alexander held on for the double-up.

Hand #107: Farahi limped in from the small blind, and Pablo Mariz checked his option in the big. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, and both players checked to the turn, which was the {q-Clubs}. Farahi checked again, as did Mariz. The river was the {9-Hearts}, and both players checked again. Farahi tabled {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for the winner. Mariz mucked.

Hand #108: Mariz limped in from the small blind, and Alexander checked his option. The flop came {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}, and Mariz checked. Alexander bet 800,000, and Mariz called. The turn was the {j-Diamonds}, and Mariz checked again. Alexander bet 1,700,000 this time, and Mariz called again. The river was the {6-Diamonds}. Mariz checked for a third time, and Alexander bet 4,200,000. Mariz shook his head and went into the tank.

"This is insane, man," Mariz said. "I was trapping preflop. F***." Eventually, he folded.
