Alex Jacob Eliminated

After moving all in a few times in a row and stealing the blinds and antes, Alex Jacob pushed one time too many. Jacob moved all in for 2,925 from under the gun and got a single caller from late position. The players showed:

Jacob: {10-?} {4-?}
Opponent: {A-?} {A-?}

The board ran out {K-?} high and Jacob was eliminated. He made his way over to the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. tournament, where he is still alive and trying to cash for an eighth time in this year's WSOP.
