Lonis Sent to the Rail
Jesse Lonis raised to 5,000 from under the gun and saw calls from Marcus Shepard in early position, Yuan Yu in middle position and Yuhong Liu on the button. Robert Matuszewski then raised to 17,000 from the small blind, and all players called except for Shepard,
The flop came 2♦8♥Q♦ and Matuszewski moved all in, which triggered every other player to also move their stacks into the middle. Liu had all players covered, and various side pots were pulled in.
Robert Matuszewski: A♥A♦9♦2♣
Jesse Lonis: K♥5♥8♦7♦
Yuan Yu: A♠K♣10♠4♦
Yuhong Liu: Q♣Q♠6♣6♥
Liu was way ahead with his set of queens and needed to dodge a diamond to scoop the massive pot and send three players to the rail. The 4♠ dropped on the turn, and when the 2♠ came on the river and filled Liu up, he scooped the pot and sent Lonis, Matuszewski, and Yu packing.
