Koon Runs into the Blades

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jason Koon
Jason Koon

Jason Koon opened on the button for 18,000, and Anthony Diotte put in a three-bet in the big blind. The next time we looked over, Koon was all in and in dire need of help.

Koon: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Diotte: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

"Anyone fold a five?" Koon asked hopefully.

Nobody responded, and the flop came down {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Koon liked the {8-Diamonds} turn, since it gave him outs to a chop, but the river was a {j-Spades}. Koon stared at his opponent's stack to see if he could cover it. Diotte said he had about 450,000 to start, and Koon looked to have around 400,000, so he wished everyone good luck.
