Is "three outer" Alaei still in the running?

Re: ** WSOP ME, $10,000 NLHE, Day 6, Sun., July 15**
 

Did he suckout on the river? Did he eliminate the other guy or was Khan AI?

Damn, it seems like there's been a lot of KK v. AA this tournament.

I believe that hand Khan flopped quad queens vs his opponents AA for his tourney life and a huge pot...

Featured Table - Christian Togsverd Eliminated in 33rd Place ($285,678)

Featured Table Hand #4 - Jon Kalmar has the button in seat 3, Kenny Tran raises from early position to 180,000, Tuan Lam calls from middle position, Stefan Mattson calls from the small blind, Christian Togsverd moves all in from the big blind for about 1.8 million, Tran folds, and Lam thinks for a few minutes before he calls. Mattson quickly folds.

Togsverd shows {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}, and Lam shows {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Togsverd needs to improve to survive.

The flop comes {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, and Lam flops a set of queens to take a dominant lead in the hand. Togsverd needs something runner-runner to survive.

The turn card is the {4-Spades}, and Togsverd is drawing dead. (The meaningless river card is the {J-Diamonds}.) Lam wins the pot with his set of queens.

Christian Togsverd is eliminated in 33rd place, earning $285,678.

Naw, pretty sure it was Joey Harrington.

According to chip count, for the pros:

Scotty Nguyen 2,250,000 ---> +500,000
Daniel Alaei 3,150,000 ---> +1,150,000
Lee Watkinson 3,900,000 ---> +600,000

If Alaei gets chips he's gonna be trouble...but man I don't really like a limp reraise all in from the button with A5o.

I think Alaei has a fairly tight image so he figures to get a lot of FE out of a limp-reraise.
