Todd Holley Eliminated

After a few reraises preflop, Todd Holley was all in against Melvin Jones. The players showed:

Jones: {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}
Holley: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}

The board filled out {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades} giving Holley top two pair but Jones the nut straight. Holley headed for the payout table while Jones stacked his chips, which now approach 590,000.
