Yass Wins Showdown Pot Against Daly

Level 23 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

Robert Yass and Jason Daly continued their duel from earlier on when they were the only ones left on the 1055 flop following a check-raise by Daly, which Yass called. The 3 turn was bet by Daly and Yass went deep into the tank, checking his remaining shorter stack behind, before he made the call.

Daly also bet the K on the river and Yass called to get shown the AJ65 for trips fives by his opponent. Yass had that beat with the A533 to scoop with a full house, leaving Daly rather frustrated.
