Which Alexander is the Greatest?

We've just picked up on a particularly unique elimination in which two players shared the same first name!

The action folded to Alexander Martin who raised to 2,600 with {A-Spades}{J-Clubs} before Alexander Keating re-raised all-in for 18,500 with {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Martin called and then the dealer spread the board of {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. With neither hand improving, Keating was KO'ed and Martin chipped up to almost 70,000.

��Heaven cannot brook two suns, nor earth two masters.�� - Alexander The Great
