Lonis Gets Short; Doubles Back to a Million

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jesse Lonis
Jesse Lonis

Jesse Lonis had been trending downward for the past couple of orbits, but recently doubled to get back to a seven-figure stack.

In the hand, Sascha Wilhelm opened to 50,000 from under the gun and was called by Maxi Lehmanski from directly behind. It was then folded to Jesse Lonis, who raised to 210,000 from the big blind. Wilhelm moved all in, which got a quick fold from Lehmanski and a call all in from Lonis for 460,000 total.

Jesse Lonis: AQQ6All in
Sascha Wilhelm: KKJ4

Lonis was behind, but the Q6J57 runout improved him to a set of queens to keep his run alive.
