J.C. Alvarado opened the pot with a raise to 200,000. Two seats over, John Kabbaj raised to 700,000. Alvarado then moved all in for 1,250,000, and Kabbaj called to put him at risk.

Showdown
Alvarado: {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades}
Kabbaj: {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts}

Alvarado walked across the stage to stand with his cheering section as he awaited what would be his final board of the day. The dealer ran it out {7-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}. Kitai's pocket pair holds up, and his jacks over tens is good enough to send J.C. Alvarado to the rail. After his departing interview, Alvarado will pick up a check for nearly $140,000 as he heads out the door.
