Big Bubble Double for Lonis
Level 15
: 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
With the board reading 9♣K♥4♥8♦ and around 200,000 in the middle, Brock Wilson checked from the big blind, and Jesse Lonis bet 200,000 from the button.
"C'mon, bro, bubble me," Lonis said as Wilson weighed his options.
"At least it's on camera, so everyone can know I got unlucky if I lose," Lonis added as Wilson burned through a time bank. Soon after, Wilson shoved, covering Lonis, who had 680,000 left. Lonis nearly beat him into the pot, putting his tournament life at risk.
Jesse Lonis: K♠9♠
Brock Wilson: 8♣4♣
Lonis had top two pair and remained ahead of Wilson's smaller two pair on the 10♣ river to double up through Wilson.
