Anthony Zinno Catches Runner, Runner To Bust Ben Jones In Second Place
Jul 19, '18
Ben Jones raised to 200,000 on the button, and Anthony Zinno three-bet to 800,000.
Jones then announced all-in, and Zinno quickly called, tabling AJ. Jones, however, had him dominated with AK.

Zinno’s rail exploded, however, when the J hit the river to give him trips and the tournament.
Jones officially walks away with $390,956 for his runner-up finish, after the two players made a deal during heads-up play. Zinno takes home the title, the trophy, and the $466,670 first-place prize.
Congratulations to Anthony Zinno, winner of the 2018 CPPT Venetian DeepStack Championship Poker Series main event!
