Lonis Fades Rafael's Outs to Double
Level 8
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
After three limps, Jesse Lonis potted it from the big blind to 60,000. Sean Rafael, who was the initial caller from under the gun, back-raised to 204,000 and only Lonis continued in the form of a call.
Lonis checked the 7♠4♣K♦ flop, and Rafael bet enough to pot Lonis all in. The bet was for Lonis' 323,000 chips, and Lonis quickly called.
Jesse Lonis: K♣J♦9♥7♣
Sean Rafael: A♣J♣10♠9♠
Lonis was ahead with two pair, although the 10♣ turn gave Rafael a lot of outs to bust Lonis. Nothing came for Rafael on the 4♥ river and Lonis earned the double-up with two pair.
