Koon Doubles Through Smith to Assume Chip Lead

Level 14 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jason Koon
Jason Koon

Dan Smith opened to 80,000 from middle position and action folded to Jason Koon in the big blind, who three-bet to 450,000. Smith shoved and Koon called off for 2.85 million.

Dan Smith: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Jason Koon: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

A chop seemed all but certain, but {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop gave Koon a backdoor flush draw.

The {3-Diamonds} turn improved Koon to a front door draw, and the {q-Diamonds} river completed Koon's flush �� vaulting him to 5.7 million in chips for the current chip lead
