Yantsevich Secures a Double Up
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Cards went on their backs on a flop of 9♠9♥Q♥ with Valery Yantsevich in the small blind at risk for 38,000 against Benjamin Jones in middle position.
Valery Yantsevich: A♣Q♠ 
Benjamin Jones: K♣Q♦
The 7♦6♦ runout kept Yantsevich in the lead and he doubled up. Jones thought he was covered so he left the tournament area, but he still had 5,000 left.
