Solid Start for Ye

Frank Visser

Level 3 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Efim Dorfman raised to 3,000 preflop, and Xiaojie Ye — one of the new entries — called. Ben Hershkovich then three-bet to 11,000, and only Ye called.

Hershkovich bet 4,500 on the 2♠2♣2♦ flop and 10,500 on the 5♠ turn. Ye called both times, after which the 7♥ river was checked to showdown.

Ye revealed 5♦4♦ for a full house, prompting Hershkovich to muck his cards in defeat.
