Alexander Doubles Through Rast
Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Brian Rast raised to 6,000 preflop which got calls from John Hinds in the small blind and DJ Alexander in the big blind.
The flop came out 
and action checked over to Rast who continued for 8,000 which was called by Hinds in the small blind. Alexander contemplated briefly before deciding to go all-in for 30,500. Rast asked for a count before going all-in himself with the covering stack. Hinds folded and both players cards were revealed.
DJ Alexander: 
Brian Rast: 
Alexander was in a dire situation against Rast but the turn 
gave him three kings and the river 
did not bring Rast a full house and Alexander got the full double.
