Lonis Takes Big Pot From Chen
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
In a heads-up pot with roughly 400,000 in the middle on a board showing K?J?8?A?, Jesse Lonis bet out 260,000 from under the gun and James Chen made the call from the hijack.
On the 8? river Lonis kept up the aggression with a bet of 570,000 and Chen went deep in the tank. After close to a minute of thought, Chen reluctantly folded and the pot was sent to Lonis.
As Lonis scooped in the chips he showed the Q? to leave Chen guessing if he made the right decision.
