Jason Koon Eliminated in Big Three-Way All In
As we approached table 42, all the community cards were already out, three players had their cards open, and two of them were getting up to make their exits. We penned down the cards as quick as we could, and asked Celina Lin for some context. Here we go:
The player under the gun limped, Jason Koon over limped, Celina Lin limped, another player limped, and both Stevan Chew in the small blind and his neighbor the big blind saw the flop for cheap as well.
They got to work with and both blinds and the player under the gun checked. Jason Koon made a bet of 2,100 and Celina Lin called. Stevan Chew in the small blind over called and the big blind now check raised to 7,900. Jason Koon then shoved all in for 15,800, Celina Lin folded, the other player folded, Stevan Chew followed suit committing his chips, and the big blind also invested all of his chips.
Stevan Chew:
Jason Koon:
Big Blind:
The flopped straight (big blind) up against the open ended and flush draw (Koon) and pair and flush draw (Chew). Guess who won? With the on the turn and the on the river it came runner runner trips on board, handing the pot to Chew who made a full house out of his flopped pair.
"That's main events for ya" said Jason Koon with a smile as he exited the tournament area. It hasn't been the best of trips for Koon so far. Yesterday he stone bubbled the $100,000 Challenge, today he busts the Main Event with just an hour to go for the day.
