"Call the Press!" Lonis Scoops for Double KO
PokerNews got to Table 7 just as a massive hand involving three players was underway. Action kicked off with Martin Mirkovic opening to 11,500 from under the gun and the next player to act calling before a middle position player three-bet jammed for around 65,000.
Action folded to Jesse Lonis in the small blind, who four-bet jammed a bigger stack. The big blind then also moved all in with around 70,000.
"Call the press!" Lonis yelled as the massive hand played out and he alerted his friend at another table who had a piece of his bounty.
"The press is here!" someone replied.
Mirkovic went deep in the tank and eventually folded, while the flat-caller also folded.
Middle Position: 
Big Blind: 
Jesse Lonis: 
Lonis was in good shape but the big blind had two live outs and was screaming for a queen.
"Queen!" he yelled as the flop landed 
. "QUEEN!" he repeated before the 
turn. The opponent gave up asking for a queen before the 
bricked off on the river for Lonis to eliminate both opponents.
"Scoop!" he cheered.
After the hand, Mirkovic told the table that he folded ace-king.
