Bob Dillon is the Bubble Boy... No, Not THAT Bob Dillon

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

When you hear the name Bob Dillon, you know doubt think of the American musician, singer-songwriter, artist, and writer. However, in today's tournament that name is synonymous with the bubble boy.

That's because Robert Dillon, who goes by Bob, got his last 41,500 all in preflop and was up against "Wild Bill" Romer.

Romer: {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Dillon: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Dillon got it in good, but the {10-Spades}{2-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop gave Romer the lead with a pair of tens. The {9-Hearts} turn improved Romer to two pair, meaning Dillon needed to fill his straight on the river to stay alive. Unfortunately for him, that didn't happen as the {Q-Spades} blanked. Dillon was felled in 46th place, meaning the remaining players are guaranteed a minimum payday of $1,986.
