Jason Alexander Doubles Up With Set Over Set

A player in middle position raises to 3,000, another player calls, and Jason Alexander calls from the button. The flop comes {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, it's checked to Alexander who bets 15,000, the original raiser moves all in, the third player folds, and Alexander calls all in for 39,100.

His opponent shows {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} for a set of jacks, but Alexander shows {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} for a higher set of kings. His opponent has just one out, but misses as the last two cards come {3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

Jason Alexander wins the pot, doubling up to 99,400 in chips.

This hand was brought to you free from bad Seinfeld-related jokes; consider it Alexander's free pass this early in the day. Stay tuned for George Costanza references throughout the rest of our coverage.
