We found Matt Alexander all in once more preflop, this time against Alexander Horodysky for 121,000. Alexander had 
, and it held up against Horodysky's 
as the board came 
.
A player told us it's Horodysky's first tournament traveling out of Chicago, and he busted out moments later after being left with just 14,000.
Alexander, meanwhile, has climbed back to about what he was at before a precipitous fall early in the day.
