Level 17
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Luke Martinelli opened to 100,000 on the button with K♥Q♣ and and Masato Yokosawa defended his big blind holding A♠4♥.
Yokosawa check-called a 75,000 bet from Matinelli on the 3♦J♣4♣ flop and then both players checked on the 4♠ turn.
The 3♠ river double paired the board and Yokosawa fired 350,000 into the middle.
Martinelli tanked a bit, but eventually decided to look Yokosawa up and Yokosawa turned over his boat to claim the pot.
