Lonis' Overpair is Good at Showdown
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
From the cutoff, Espen Jorstad raised to 100,000 and only Jesse Lonis wanted to play from the button.
Jorstad laid out a continuation-bet of 160,000 on the 2♣7♦3♣ flop, and Lonis put in the call.
A 8♣ appeared on the turn, causing Jorstad to fire out 215,000. Once again, Lonis called.
Both checked the 5♥ river and Jorstad turned over J♣8♠ for a pair of eights. Lonis revealed an overpair with 9♥9♠ and the pot was sent to him.
