Yogo Bounces Home
Reigning ANZ Player of the Year Iori Yogo has been eliminated from the APPT Auckland Main Event. We didn't catch his bust out, but he was gracious enough to let us know what happened. It's not a pretty story either.
It started with the under the gun player opening to 700. There were three callers, including Yogo in the big blind. On the flop, Yogo checked and the under the gun player bet 2,200. There were two folds before Yogo called. On the turn, Yogo led for 4,000 and then his opponent shoved. Yogo had 11,000 in total and called it off.
Yogo had for a turned straight, while his opponent had for a set of sevens and a flush draw.
Yogo was looking good to double up, but then a landed on the river to give Yogo's opponent a full house and enough to send the Japanese player to the rail.
