Ionescu Picks Off Lewis
Level 44
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Petre Ionescu raised to 1,300,000 from under the gun and Romain Lewis defended in the big blind.
Lewis played in flow on the 2♦Q♦7♠ flop. Ionescu bet out 900,000 and Lewis check-raised to 2,400,000. Ionescu called.
The 9♦ turn checked through to the J♦ on the river. Lewis came out firing for 3,800,000 and Ionescu went deep into the tank. Ionescu thought for a considerable amount of time before making the call.
Lewis rolled over K♠10♦ for a queen-high flush, while Ionescu took down this pot with K♦Q♥ for a king-high flush. Lewis clearly seemed shocked by his opponent's holding.
