Pomonis Jumps on the Double Deuce Express

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Kohei Ikeda raised from early position to 3,500, and action was folded around to Keith Pomonis in the big blind, who three-bet all in for his last 16,500. Ikeda called.

Keith Pomonis: 22All in
Kohei Ikeda: A8

The flop came 945 at which point Pomonis stood up and started gathering his belongings. The turn brought the 7 and the river the 5, and Pomonis was walking away from the table. "You won sir" one of his fellow players let him know. "Oh! I thought he had Ace-five!" came Pomonis' reply as he made his way back to his seat to start stacking his newly shipped chips.
