Dix Out on the Bubble; Final Table Set

[user38449]

13 long hours after play began, we have ourselves a final table. Michael Dix, who had miserable deck coop. during the last few levels of play, was eliminated on the bubble by Simon Morris. Here's how the final hand went down:

David Steicke limped into the pot from early position and the action folded around the table to Morris who raised. Jan Suchanek made the call from late position and when the action reached Dix in the blinds, he moved all in for his last 5,300. Steicke made the call as well and we had a three-way sidepot with Dix all in heading into the flop: {J-Diamonds}

Steicke was first to act and checked. Morris fired a bet that prompted Suchanek to fold, but Steicke stuck around to see the turn -- {8-Hearts}

.

On 4th Street, Steicke checked, Morris bet, and Steicke called one more bet, taking the hand to the river -- {3-Clubs}

.

Steicke check-folded to another Morris bet, and at the showdown, Morris quickly tabled a pocket pair of aces.

Dix, who hadn't looked at his cards before shoving all in, turned over the {9-Diamonds}
