Yotsushika Holds On to Bust Herbert
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Around 400,000 was already in the pot as three players went to the turn on a board of 3♠10♠A♥10♥. Maxime Herbert then bet 75,000 from the big blind and Kazuhiko Yotsushika slid forward a tower of black and yellow 100,000 chips from the hijack, enough to cover the rest of the table.
Adi Rajkovic was on the button and tanked for a few minutes before folding, while Herbert quickly called for 350,000 more. He showed Q♥J♥ for straight and flush draws, while Yotsushika had A♣K♦ for two pair.
The 6♠ river missed Herbert and he was sent to the rail while Yotsushika raked in the big pot that moved him among the chip leaders.
