Condon Busts at Hands of Latona
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Alexander Condon was all in and at risk on a flop of 8♠10♣2♣ with his opponent Anthony Latona having made the call with a covering stack.
Alexander Condon: A♣A♠Q♦4♠
Anthony Latona: A♥J♣10♦2♥
Condon's aces had been cracked by Latona's flopped two pair, and he was in search of a way to retake the lead. Without directly improving his hand, the K♠ turn was the best he could've hoped for, improving to both nut-flush and nut-straight draws. However, the 10♠ river was one spade he didn't want to see, with Latona using the Doyle (ten-deuce) to boat up and eliminate his opponent.
