Lynskey Delivers a Brutal Cooler to Sondhi
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Alex Lynskey opened to 26,000 from the hijack and received calls from Vikas Sondhi in the cutoff, Luke Chung on the button and Jeff Gross in the big blind.
The flop came J♠5♣J♥. Gross checked, Lynskey checked, Sondhi bet 40,000 and Chung folded 4♠4♦. Gross folded 10♥8♥ before Lynskey called.
Sondhi continued for 110,000 when checked to on the 2♥ turn and Lynskey called again. On the 8♣ river Lynskey checked, Sondhi shoved with his remaining st ack of 352,000 and Lynskey called.
Sondhi had trips with K♦J♣ but Lynskey had J♦5♦ for jacks full of fives to take down a colossal pot, eliminating Sondhi and surpassing two million chips in the process.
