Chris Alex Eliminated in 4th Place ($2,400)
Level 17
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
John Rebollo limped and Rick Ziegler did the same on the button. Chris Alex came along from the small blind and Slade Edmonds checked his option to make it a family affair to the 2♠4♠10♥ flop.
Two checks saw Rebollo take a stab at it to the tune of 400,000, and Ziegler called. Alex then check-raised all in for 800,000, Edmonds folded, and Rebollo got out of the way. Ziegler, however, did call and Alex was in trouble with the inferior kicker.
Chris Alex: J♣10♦
Rick Ziegler: K♦10♠
The 4♣ turn was no help to Alex and neither was the 9♥ river.
