Lonis Pulling Away from the Rest
Level 18
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
From the hijack, Jesse Lonis raised to 550,000 and only Maher Nouira called from the small blind.
Both players checked a flop of 6♣K♣5♥ to see the 7♣ drop on the turn. Nouira led out for 550,000, which Lonis called.
Another round of checks came after the 5♣ river and Nouira showed a pair of kings with K♠J♠. However, this was second best to the 4♦4♣ of Lonis for a rivered flush.
