William Jones Eliminated in 4th Place (A$88,600)

Just as the players were about to head on another ten minute break, this massive hand played out and left us with only three players.

It all started when the action was folded to William Jones on the button and he made it 80,000 to go. Both Phillip Willcocks and Steve Bouya made the call from the blinds and we would see a flop.

The {9-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{5-Spades} hit the flop and Willcocks led for 175,000. Bouya got out of the way and the next move was on Jones who popped it to 425,000. Willcocks then moved all-in and Jones made the call.

Willcocks: {6-Spades}{7-Spades}
Jones: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The massive hands were turned over, with Jones out in front with his set, but he had a lot of bullets to dodge with Willcocks holding an inside straight-flush draw.

The turn card was a devestating {8-Hearts}, giving Willcocks the straight and when the river didn't feature a nine or pair the board, it was all over for Jones with Willcocks having him covered by only a few big blinds.

The Tasmanian goes home in 4th place, taking with him $88,600 in prizemoney.
