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.
