Ye Eliminated One from Pay Jump
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Keith Johnson raised to 16,000 in the hijack, and both Jose Malpelli in the cutoff and Yi Ye in the big blind called.
Ye checked to Johnson, who bet another 16,000 on the 10♣9♦7♦ flop. Malpelli called again, and Ye then went into the tank.
With less than one big blind in her stack, but with the tournament poised on a pay jump, Ye spread all her time extensions out in front of her. One by one, the dealer took them, before Ye then put her 7,000 into the middle.
The Q♥ turn card joined the board, and Johnson check-folded to a bet of 25,000.
Yi Ye: K♣6♣
Jose Malpelli: 3♠3♦
The pocket threes held up on the 5♥ river, and Ye was eliminated.
