Edoardo Alescio Takes a Two to One Chip Lead

Edoardo Alescio has just taken the roof off the building with a huge double up.

We caught the action on a board of [Qc] [9d] [4d] [7c] with Alescio holding [7d] [6d] and Steve O’Dwyer holding [Qs] [Ts]. O’Dwyer makes a bet and Alescio moves all-in. O’Dwyer makes the call and he is one card away from being a WPT Champion.

River: [8d]

The Italian fans go crazy and Alescio is now the chip leader with 4,020,000 chips. O’Dwyer has 2,354,000.
