Alex Jacob Eliminated

Alex Jacob moved his remaning 1,225 into the middle of the table preflop holding {A-Spades} {7-Diamonds} and was called by a middle-position player who held {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}. The hand looked to be a chopped pot through the turn, as the board read {9-Spades} {9-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {5-Hearts} . However, Jacob's opponent was best as the river fell {K-Hearts}, giving him the pot and eliminating Jacob from today's event.
