Yazell Finds the Correct Call and Holds to Knock a Player Out
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action was picked up on the flop multi-ways with roughly 20,000 in the pot and the board showing 6♣7♦10♦.
The player in the small blind bet all in for his stack of 15,500, which got the player in middle position to quickly fold, and after debating his decision, Brad Yazell made the call to put his opponent at risk.
Small Blind: 5♥4♥ 
Brad Yazell: 8♠8♣
Yazell made the correct call with his pocket eights, but would need to fade the open-ended straight draw of his opponent. However, the board ran out clean for Yazell after the A♥ on the turn and 7♥ on the river, giving him the pot with his two pair, eights and sevens to eliminate his opponent.
