Yong Doubles Through Troyanovskiy

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

The early developments of the hand escaped us, but we do know there was approximately 50,000 in the pot when action exploded on the turn with the board reading {7-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}{j-Clubs}. Richard Yong, who if you recall tried bluffing on his very first hand, managed to get his stack in against Vladimir Troyanovskiy, who got off to a hot start today but seems to be stuck in reverse.

Yong: {8-Spades}{9-Spades}
Troyanovskiy: {10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Troyanovskiy held top pair, but he was drawing dead to the flopped straight of Yong. The meaningless {3-Clubs} was put out on the river for good measure, and Yong was pushed the pot while an aggravated Troyanovskiy took stock of his remaining chips.
