Lonis Gets Flushed Out
Level 16
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 60,000 from the cutoff, before Jesse Lonis on the button three-bet to 180,000. It folded back to Ponakovs and he made the call.
After the Q♥6♠A♥ flop, Ponakovs check-called a bet of 140,000.
The turn was the 3♠ and Ponakovs check-called another bet from Lonis for 420,000.
On the river came the 7♥, and once Ponakovs checked a third time, Lonis moved all in for 1,100,000 and Ponakovs quickly called.
Lonis held A♠6♣ for a flopped two pair, but Ponakovs made a flush on the river with 6♥5♥ to take the massive pot and send Lonis to the rail.
