Dixon Outflips Simpson the Hard Way
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Dixon raised to 8,000 in middle position, Ian Simpson moved all in from the small blind, and Dixon snap-called for 119,500.
Joe Dixon: A♦K♥ 
Ian Simpson: 2♥2♠
It was a big flip for Dixon's tournament life, and he picked up additional outs on the 9♦7♣7♠ flop. The 9♥ turn gave him two pair and counterfeited Simpson's deuces.
"Ah. Deuce," Simpson pleaded, but the dealer instead turned over the 5♥ on the river and Dixon doubled up.
