Jesse Lonis Eliminated in 6th Place ($146,000)
Level 17
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Marcus Dieleman raised under the gun to 250,000 with Jesse Lonis calling from the small blind, and Daniel Dvoress defending his big blind.
Lonis led out for 850,000 on the Q♠9♠6♦ flop, which got Dvoress to fold. Dieleman potted it, and Lonis called for his last 1,800,000 or so to put himself at risk.
Jesse Lonis: Q♦Q♣6♣4♠ 
Marcus Dieleman: K♠K♦5♠2♣
Lonis had the nuts with a set of queens, and just needed to fade a king or some spades to double up.
The 3♦ turn was safe for Lonis, but the K♣ river improved Dieleman to a higher set, and Lonis hit the rail in sixth place.
