Yu Flopped It
The decision was on Austrian player Josip Simunic when we arrived at his table. In the middle was a pile of chips already and all five community cards: ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
.
Ben Yu had 23,300 in front of him and that was asked of Simunic at this point. One helpful tablemate of the two told us that there had been a bet by Simunic and the 23,300 in front of Yu represented his all in raise.
Yu didn't move a muscle as Simunic thought about his decision. After some heavy thinking he splashed in the 23,300 asked of him after which Yu showed his ![]()
quick as lightning. The river didn't help him at all but he got the full double up from his opponent nonetheless.
As this was an all in and a call Simunic's hand was tabled for all to see: ![]()
. Yu received the pot from the dealer and started counting his chips (and blessings maybe). We counted along with him: 103,200.
