Alava Doubles Through Lonis
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
The cards were turned over already as Jesse Lonis attempted to knock out Bruno Alava.
His A♠J♠ had flopped jacks up but Alava on the button was way out in front with the 10♦8♦ on J♣8♣8♠.
The 7♦ turn and 9♦ river improved Alava to a jack-high straight and he doubled for 102,000, putting a dent into Lonis' above-average stack.
