The board read 7♠5♠2♠ with roughly 150,000 in the middle. Marius Condrea had forced Preston Lokondo all in for 210,000, and Lokondo looked troubled. He utilized three timebank chips before making the call.
Marius Condrea: 9♦9♣
Preston Lokondo: K♠Q♥
Lokondo was pleased to see he had a lot of equity, and as the K♥ landed on the turn, he rose from his chair and started dancing, accompanied by some soothing humming. The river (which I apparently didn’t write down) didn’t kill his buzz, and he received a double-up at this very crucial stage of the tournament.
Preston Lokondo: 570,000
Marius Condrea: 203,000
