Yuen Closes In On 200k

Soaring up the leaderboard
Soaring up the leaderboard
Sida Yuen entered the pot with a raise to 4,200 from under the gun, and as the action folded round to Joshua Ang in the small blind he announced his intention to raise.

Ang threw in the 4,200 before sliding in a stack of 500-denomination chips amounting to a re-raise to 19,200 total.

Yuen instantly moved all in for roughly 130,000 more to Ang and his tournament life.

His enjoyable table massage turned into anguish as Ang looked visibly distressed at the decision he was facing for his last 40,000 in chips.

Nearly four minutes went by before Ang angrily threw his cards into the muck as the masseuse kept working hard at his now tenser shoulders.

Yuen checked his cards once more before sliding them to the dealer as he raked in the pot to send him to over 180,000 in chips.
