Yokosawa Holds to Double Off Vallinas
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Alexandre Reard raised to 1,700 in early position and received four callers as action went on Jon Vallinas in the big blind. He three-bet to 12,000 and Reard folded, while only Masato Yokosawa called in the cutoff.
The flop came 9♣9♦5♣ and Vallinas bet 5,000. Yokosawa then moved all in for 22,000 and Vallinas called.
Masato Yokosawa: 6♣6♦ 
Jon Vallinas: A♣Q♠
Yokosawa was ahead with his two pair and held on through the J♥ turn and 2♣ river to secure the double up.
