Miracle River Keeps Lonis in His Seat
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Picking up the action on the turn with a board reading Q♥9♦5♥Q♠, Jesse Lonis bet 15,000 into a pot of around 40,000. Sean Jazayeri raised to 40,000 in position and Lonis shoved all in for 57,500. Jazayeri snap-called and the cards were tabled.
Jesse Lonis: Q♦J♦
Sean Jazayeri: A♦Q♣
Both players had three queens but it was Jazayeri who had the better kicker. Just as Lonis was about to stand up, the J♠ hit the river and Lonis quickly returned to his seat with a double up.
