Lightbourne Shines After Winning a Big Flip

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Iaron Lightbourne
Iaron Lightbourne

In a massive preflop showdown, Iaron Lightbourne was the player at risk for 2,385,000 against Luigi Curcio to unleash the following coin flip.

Iaron Lightbourne: AK All in
Luigi Curcio: QQ

The A98 flop vaulted Lightbourne into the lead, but he had a sweat to endure on the J turn, as Curcio picked up a gutshot. No ten or queen came on the 8 river, and the Brit doubled to join the bigger stacks in the penultimate level of the night.
