Yu Finds Another Double
A short-stacked Winfred Yu raised the pot (35,000) from under the gun, which left him just 2,000 behind. Action then folded around to Niklas Heinecker on the button and he called, prompting both blinds to fold. Yu then bet his last 2,000 in the dark and Heinecker called so the cards could be turned up.
Heinecker: 
Yu: 
Heinecker had the best hand, but not after the flop came down 
. Yu paired his queen to take the lead, which was strengthened when 
turn took away some of Heinecker's outs. The 
ended up blanking on the river and Yu doubled through the German.
