Pansier Raises the Turn; Yea Gets Big Double
Level 21
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Three ways to the J♠6♠4♦4♣ turn, Norbert Koh invested 65,000 but quickly folded to a raise by Nino Pansier while Florencio Campomanes also got out of the way as well. Despite losing this pot, Koh has a very comfortable big stack and that also applies to Steve Yea one table over.
Kevin Clemot had been the one to suffer as Yea doubled through him in a large pot. According to Clemot, he "made a big mistake" and three-bet too small to then get it in via check-shove on a Kx9x5x7♠ turn when a second spade appeared. Yea happily called with the 8♠6♠ for the nuts and the AxKx of Clemot had zero equity.
