Minko Ousts Lonis
Level 7
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
A big pot broke out between Jesse Lonis from under the gun and Vladimir Minko from the next seat over.
The hand was picked up on the river of a pot that had already swelled past 200,000 on a board that read 6♠8♣2♦6♣10♥. Lonis checked before Vladimir Minko put in 315,000, which was more than enough to put Lonis at risk, who sat with approximately 228,000.
Lonis went into the tank as he played two time banks to think over his decision. He chose to make the call, and they went to a showdown.
Minko tabled A♥A♣ for a pair of aces to claim the pot as Lonis was eliminated.
