Wang's Aces No Match for Lonis Run-Good

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jesse Lonis

Hand-for-hand action was picked up with Yuzhu Wang all in and at risk from early position for 334,000 against Jesse Lonis in the big blind.

Yuzhu Wang: AA All in
Jesse Lonis: 65

As the players waited for the hand to play out, Lonis told Wang, "You have my flush covered. I'm basically dead." The reverse jinx worked as the dealer spread an ice-cold flop of J65. Wang remained in good spirits despite his tournament life hanging in the balance. Unfortunately for him, the dealer provided no assistance on the K turn or Q river, eliminating Wang on the soft bubble.
