Lonis Finds a Miracle Runout
Level 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jesse Lonis opened to 20,000 in early position and Kristopher Tong three-bet to 88,000 from the small blind. Lonis just called and the flop of J♣2♣2♦ was spread across the felt. Tong moved all in for his last 86,000 and Lonis used a time bank before making the call.
Kristopher Tong: A♣A♦8♠2♥
Jesse Lonis: K♠K♦7♦5♣
Tong had aces with a deuce in his hand while Lonis was drawing slim with pocket kings. The 9♦ on the turn gave Lonis a flush draw and the 4♦ on the river completed his flush, without improving Tong who was left stunned by the runout.
