Lonis Catches Lightning to Eliminate Watson
Level 12
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jesse Lonis opened from the hijack and action folded to Mike Watson, who shoved for approximately 100,000 from the small blind. Lonis quickly called to put Watson at risk and hands were revealed.
Mike Watson: K♠Q♣
Jesse Lonis: A♦Q♦
The 3♥10♣2♠ flop changed nothing, but the K♥ turn vaulted Watson into the lead with a pair of kings.
However, the J♦ river reversed fortunes as Lonis made Broadway on the end to eliminate Watson from the tournament.
