Matt Alexander Doubles Up Another Player
Level 7
: 250/500, 50 ante
Matt Alexander is having a tough go today. He was previously involved in a big hand with Blake Bohn, and when we approached the table, Alexander had just called an opponent's all-in on a 
board.
Alexander turned over 
for top pair, but unfortunately his opponent turned over 
for a higher kicker.
The 
turn and 
river failed to improve Alexander's hand and he was left with 25,000 after doubling up his opponent.

The big blind folded as did the original raiser.
