"It's Hard to Win a Flip Around Here"

Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Cherish Andrews open-jammed for around 450,000 on the button and Jesse Lonis called in the big blind.

Cherish Andrews: 88 All in
Jesse Lonis: KQ

Andrews survived the flip as the board ran out 92AA3 to earn her a double.

A few hands later, Lonis doubled up Peter Placey as his AJ couldn't hit against Placey's 33.

"It's hard to win a flip around here," said Lonis.
