The hijack opened to 1,800, Jeremy Ausmus called in the cutoff, followed by Farid Jattin on the button, and Jesse Lonis in the big blind.
The 4♥3♣2♥ flop hit the felt, and Lonis took the lead, firing 3,400 into the middle. The hijack and Ausmus quickly folded, and Jattin put in a raise of 20,000. Lonis tanked for about 30 seconds while eying up the 5,500 Jattin had behind and eventually announced all in. Jattin quickly called and both hands were tabled.
Farid Jattin: 5♦5♠4♦3♠
Jesse Lonis: A♦Q♠7♦5♥
Lonis had flopped a wheel and Jattin was unable to catch up as the board completed with the 10♠ turn and 8♣ river.
