Nanonoko’s Three Hands to Bust

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

Randy “nanonoko” Lew was in the tournament, he isn’t anymore. He gave us a blow by blow account of the 3 hands that comprised most of his action and sent him out.
In the first hand Lew opened with {q-}{10-} and there was a three-bet and another 3 callers. Back to Lew who shoved all in. The three bettor called with {q-}{q-} and the other players folded. The flop was {j-}{9-}{8-} giving Lew a straight and a double up.

The next major hand Lew was involved in saw him three bet with {j-}{j-} the player who previously had queens. He then check-raised all in on the flop of {9-}{8-}{6-} and his opponent called with {7-}{6-}. A {10-} on the turn so nanonoko’s stack reduced.

The very same player did for Lew not long after when Lew called his four bet with {j-}{j-} and his nemesis showed {a-}{k-}, hitting the ace on the flop.
