Chidwick Doubles Through Lonis
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
Dylan Smith opened to 2,400 in early position and Jesse Lonis three-bet to 4,800 on his left. Jonathan Azoulay flat-called in the cutoff and Stephen Chidwick four-bet the pot to 22,200 from the big blind. Smith quickly folded but both Lonis and Azoulay called.
The flop came A♥10♥6♣ and Chidwick led out with a bet of 70,000. Lonis called and Azoulay got out of the way. The turn was the 9♣ and Chidwick moved all in for his last 60,700. Lonis called and the cards were tabled.
Stephen Chidwick: A♦10♠7♠5♦
Jesse Lonis: 9♥8♥6♠2♠
Both players held two pair and a straight draw but Chidwick's holding was stronger, although Lonis also possessed a flush draw. The river was the 8♣ and Chidwick improved to a straight to score a double up.
