Baron Busts Lodden

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Whether way out front or far behind, it seems like nothing can stop Isaac Baron from winning pots in the last couple of hours. Baron scored a big double up just before the money hit, and since then, he has not looked back. Baron just knocked out Pokerstars Pro Johnny Lodden to up his stack to a whopping 600,000. Lodden open shoved in middle position for around 40,000, and next to act, Baron made the call. Everyone else folded, and Lodden had Baron dominated.

Lodden: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Baron: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Baron had just two outs to knock out Lodden, and he hit one of them on the flop, as it came out {j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Spades}. The turn brought the {j-Spades}, giving Lodden two additional outs, as another jack would give him a better full house. However, the river came the {2-Spades}, and Baron scored the bounty, eliminating one of the most dangerous players in the field.
