Jones Cracks Hutupasu's Cowboys
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Richard Jones had opened and been called by Nathan Watson before Marius Hutupasu squeezed to 41,000. When the action got back to Jones, he put in a four-bet to just under 100,000, which got Watson out of the way. Hutupasu then shoved for around 150,000, and Jones quickly called.
Marius Hutupasu: K♦K♠ 
Richard Jones: A♣K♣
Hutupasu was a favorite to double up, but that soon became an unlikely scenario as the 6♣A♥7♠ flop gave Jones top pair. The future looked bleak for Hutupasu, and he couldn't find his one-outer as neither the 8♣ turn nor 7♥ river were the case king he was looking for.
