Level 25 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Jonathan Lawson
Jonathan Lawson

Jonathan Lawson opened to 100,000 from the cutoff and Erwann Pecheux defended his big blind.

The 2♥8♠4♥ flop prompted Pecheux to check and Lawson bet 225,000. Pecheux jammed, covering Lawson's remaining ~400,000 stack, and Lawson snapped him off.

Jonathan Lawson: A♥K♥All in
Erwann Pecheux: 10♥9♥

Lawson was ahead with ace-king and was also holding hearts to the nut flush draw. A 9♦ turn saw Pechux improve to a pair of nines and overtake Lawson. There was no coming back on the Q♠ river as Lawson was the latest elimination of the evening, hitting the rail in 13th place.
