Lon's Tournament Life Licked

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

In Lon McEachern's final hand, a player limped from middle position and McEachern went all-in for his last 675 from the small. The big blind called, as did the original limper.

The flop came {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and the big blind checked. The middle position player bet 1,000 and the big blind folded after some deliberation.

McEachern: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Opponent: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The {9-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} were no help to McEachern and he was sent to the rail.
