Yan Doubles, Toma Avoids Disaster
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
David Yan moved all in from the hijack for 175,000 and Tsugunari Toma raised all in from the cutoff for 667,000. Alejandro Lococo asked for a count and thought about his decision for thirty seconds before folding 9x9x face up, leaving Yan all in and at risk against Toma.
David Yan: K♦K♠
Tsugunari Toma: 8♥8♦
Yan was in great shape with pocket-kings and remained ahead on the 7♣4♣A♦10♦7♥ runout to receive a full double up, while Toma narrowly avoided elimination himself given that Lococo's nines would have been good for the side pot had he called.
