Lonis Straightens Saeed Out

Daniel J O'Hair

Niveau 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Jeff Madsen raised to 20,000 from early position and was called by Jesse Lonis in the cutoff and Omar Saeed in the big blind.

Saeed led out for 35,000 on the 10♣J♦8♦ flop, which got a fold from Madsen, but a raise to 115,000 from Lonis.

Saeed announced he was all in for approximately 260,000 and Lonis quickly called to put Saeed at risk.

Omar Saeed: A♣K♠J♣10♠ All in
Jesse Lonis: K♦Q♦Q♣9♣

Lonis had flopped a straight, and the 2♥ turn and 7♣ river changed nothing — elimanting Saeed from the tournament
