Alexander is First Elimination in the Super Turbo Bounty

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

Duane Alexander opened to 500 and Rafael Bertani defended his big blind. The flop came {5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Bertani check-called a continuation bet of 1,000.

The turn was the {7-Clubs} and Bertani check-called a bet of 3,000. The river was the {7-Hearts}. This time Bertani bet 6,000. Alexander raised in position to 15,000 and Bertani moved all in.

Alexander wrestled with his decision for a good while. "Am I this tight?" he said aloud to the table. Eventually, he called and showed {3-Spades}{3-Hearts} for a full house.

Bertani turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a bigger full house, and Alexander became the first elimination of the event.
