Jon Maren

Jon Maren was eliminated after he had raised preflop and was called by Casey Kastle. The flop ran {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

and Jon moved all in after Casey had checked. Casey called and turned over 6-6-5-2 for a pair of sixes while Jon showed A-J-2-3 for a straight draw. The {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

fell on the river, giving Jon even more possibilities, but the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

on the river was of little help and made Jon our fifth place finisher.
