Yee Quartered, Then Triples Up

We had quite a bit of action that looked like it was going to be heads-up again, but yet again, three handed play continues as normal. Michael Yee was quartered in a hand vs. David Singontiko, but the very next hand he tripled up and is back to 750,000

Singontiko called on the button, Jeffrey Gibralter called in the small blind, and Yee raised it up to 200,000 in the big blind. Singontiko called and Gibralter folded. The flop came down {4-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Yee went all in for his last few chips and Singontiko called.

Singontiko: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Yee: {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The turn and river were {10-Hearts} and {5-Hearts} to give Singontiko the high and split the low between the two. After the hand, Yee had only 250,000 left. The very next hand though, Yee got it all in preflop with both Gibralter and Singontiko calling. The two checked it down, and on a board of {q-Spades}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{6-Clubs} Yee took it down with {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for a pair of kings to go along with the sixes on the board.
