Soverel First Casualty in the Money
Level 20
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Jesse Lonis had raised preflop and Sam Soverel was the only opponent remaining on the button on a A♥10♦2♠ flop, on which Lonis asked for the size of the pot and bet 475,000. Soverel called and the 5♦ fell on the turn.
Lonis now bet the full pot for 1,650,000 and Soverel had 1,795,000 behind. After investing two time banks, Soverel moved all-in and Lonis called with both players verbally announcing their hands already before flipping them over.
Sam Soverel: A♦6♦5♣4♦
Jesse Lonis: A♠J♣10♣7♠
Lonis was ahead with the top two pair while Soverel had inferior two pair with a wheel draw and the nut flush draw. The 7♣ river was a blank and Soverel became the first casualty in the money.
