Lonis Takes Small Hit to Big Stack

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 8

A player limped in the small blind and Jesse Lonis raised from the big blind. The small blind called to see a flop.

Action checked to Lonis on the 10♠8♦3♥ flop and he continued. His opponent made the call.

Both players checked through the A♣ turn to the 2♠ river at which point the small blind led out. Lonis quickly tossed in calling chips. The small blind turned over 10♣5♠4♦3♣ for a winner to take some chips from Lonis, who still sits on one of the largest stacks in the room.

Level 7

Limit Hold'em

Derek Dewitt opened from under the gun and Chad Eveslage three-bet out of the small blind. Dewitt responded with a four-bet, which Eveslage called.

Eveslage checked on the 3♣A♣6♠ flop before raising after Dewitt continued. Dewitt flatted to send action to the turn.

The turn came Q♠ prompting Eveslage to bet out, then call when Dewitt put in a raise.

The 9♣ saw Eveslage check to Dewitt, who did not choose to go to showdown, instead firing off a bet. Eveslage reluctantly folded to leave himself short.
