Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

From the hijack seat, Chamath Palihapitiya opened with a raise to 275. Marc-Etienne McLaughlin reraised from the cutoff seat to 900, and then action folded to Bryce Yockey in the big blind. Yockey called, and then Palihapitiya called as well.

With three-way action to the flop, the dealer fanned out the {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Yockey and Palihapitiya checked to McLaughlin, and he bet 1,500. Yockey check-raised to 3,500, and Palihapitiya folded. McLaughlin went into the tank for a minute or two, and then called to see the turn.

The turn card was the {6-Hearts}, and Yockey was first to act. He led with a bet of 6,000, and this sent McLaughlin back into the tank. Eventually, McLaughlin folded, and Yockey won the pot.
