Yeh's Bottom Pair is Good

Philip Yeh has made another amazing call. After action folded to Deb Blair and she completed the small blind, Yeh raised to 65,000. Blair made the call.

The flop came all babies: {8-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {2-Diamonds}. Blair checked to Yeh, who made a continuation bet of 50,000, which Blair called. Both players checked the {5-Clubs} turn. When the {A-Spades} hit the river, Blair fired 60,000. Yeh let out a disgusted chuckle, shook his head, and tanked. He finally made the call.

Blair turned over a missed draw: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Yeh turned over {10-Spades}{2-Clubs} for bottom pair. That was enough to take down the pot.
