Darren Yoon was just looking like he was about to take a huge hit to his stack by doubling up Vincent Rubianes. But poker doesn't always go the way it looks like going.
It was blind versus blind when Yoon called the all in of Rubianes. Yoon held 
and was struggling against the 
of Rubianes.
Yoon looked like he had just about already said goodbye to his chips, but when the board ran out , it was a full house on the board and a miracle for Yoon as Rubianes' jacks were counterfeited.
While all this was happening, APPT President Danny McDonaugh was giving a running commentary and said that "Darren Bubble Yoon" maybe deserved the chop, referring to the fact that Yoon was recently the exact bubble boy in consecutive PokerStars tournaments in Macau.
