De Jonge Hits Huge River
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Sebastiaan de Jonge open-shoved his 105,000 stack from the cutoff. Kelley Slay made the call, covering, from the small blind. Keith Pomonis called off too, for just 75,000.
Keith Pomonis: 7♠5♠
Sebastiaan de Jonge: A♠8♥
Kelley Slay: A♣9♥
Slay was out in the lead, and it stayed that way on the K♣2♣K♠ flop. The turn 7♣ changed everything, as Pomonis picked up the lead, but still had to fade the nut flush draw of Slay. de Jonge was all but eliminated, until he hit the miracle two-outer on the 8♠ river, as he almost tripled up, and sent Pomonis home.
