Alper Doubles Through Birmingham
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Todd Birmingham raised to 175,000 in the hijack and Steven Alper on the button pushed all-in for 670,000.
The initial raiser asked for an exact count and then checked his own stack, sighing "maybe now is the time that I am dominated" before he called.
Steven Alper: A♦K♦ 
Todd Birmingham: A♠10♥
The kicker indeed played for Alper on the 9♠6♥5♥A♣K♥ board as he doubled with aces and kings.
