Loni Spikes Two Outer

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

From middle position Heath Mendelsohn opened to 35,000 only to have Loni Harwood three-bet jam all in for 246,000 from the small blind. Mendelsohn instantly called and the cards were tabled.

Mendelsohn: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Harwood: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

With Mendelsohn in great shape to storm up the leaderboard, the {8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop would be the dagger ending that dream as Harwood spiked a two-outer to keep her in the tournament.

Now needing to fade one of the two case Jacks, the {9-Spades} and {Q-Spades} on the turn and river ensured her double as Mendelsohn was left thinking "what if?"
