Li Stacks Off to Yakuba

Yuan Li
Yuan Li

Yuan Li opened to 16,000 from under the gun and Anton Yakuba three-bet to 56,000 from the small blind. Li decided to four-bet shove all in for around 130,000 and Yakuba made the call.

Anton Yakuba: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Yuan Li: {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Yakuba was in a dominating position and the flop of {j-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades} changed nothing. The {8-Spades} landed on the turn but neither player held a spade in their hand. The {4-Diamonds} completed the board and Li was eliminated.

Daniel Dvoress

Anton Yakuba completed his small blind and Daniel Dvoress opted to check his big blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Yakuba bet 10,000 and Dvoress raised to 30,000 which Yakuba called.

The turn brought them the {8-Clubs}, Yakuba checked and Dvoress bet 80,000. Yakuba tanked, used a time bank card, and then shoved with the bigger stack. Dvoress snap-called for the 300,000 or so he had behind.

Daniel Dvoress: {j-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Anton Yakuba: {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Dvoress had flopped two pair but Yakuba had turned the higher two pair.
