Dion Jones Eliminated 30th ($900)
Oct 25, '15
After a flop of QJ6 Dion Jones shoved the last of his stack into the pot. Josh Parker called and the hands were tabled.
Jones looked good for a double up having spiked a set of sixes holding 66 against Parker’s KK.
The table erupted in surprise when the dealer peeled off the K on the turn. Jones’ one and only out failed to appear on the river – it was the 2 instead – and he was eliminated.
“I’m sorry man,” Parker said as Jones left the table.
