Ahmad Damages Lonis' Stack
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
On a flop of 5♠4♠K♣, there were only around 80,000 in the pot when a series of raises and reraises left Abdullah Ahmad all-in for his stack of 639,000 against Jesse Lonis.
Abdullah Ahmad: 4♥4♦
Jesse Lonis: 7♠6♠
Ahmad had flopped bottom set, but needed to fade a lot as Lonis had an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw. Nothing changed on the 7♦ turn, and the 9♥ river bricked out for Lonis.
"How much is the damage? I was going for the win early on, I couldn't resist," said Lonis after the hand.
