Young Gets a Big Double, Then Busts; Hand-for-Hand Begins

Orson Young
Orson Young

In Level 29 with blinds of 14,000/28,000 and an ante of 3,500, "kgkg510" opened to 70,000 on the button and Orson "Borgatcha" Young three-bet shoved for 205,000 in the small blind. Daniel "centrfieldr23" Lupo came over the top, also jamming for 565,000 and "kgkg510" folded to send the two off to the races.

Orson "Borgatcha" Young: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Daniel "centrfieldr23" Lupo: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Young wound up on the right end of the coin flip as the board ran out {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{k-Spades} for his pocket nines to remain best and secure the double at Lupo's expense.

However, Moments later, Young wound up in another huge pot with "kgkg510", where Young opened in the hijack and "kgkg510" defended their big blind. Bets went in as the board came {j-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{9-Spades}, with Young ultimately jamming the river and getting a call.

Orson "Borgatcha" Young: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}
"kgkg510": {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

Young's bluff was caught by top pair and he was eliminated in 10th place as a result. With nine now remaining, hand-for-hand play is again in effect as the tournament has reached the final table bubble.
