button in SafariYeung Eliminates Geliberte
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Norman Yeung began the bidding with an open to 3,500 from under the gun. Shumian Zhang made the call from early position, but Derrick Geliberte wanted to play for the remainder of his stack as he went all-in for 6,700 from the big blind.
Yeung shoved himself to isolate, and Zhang got out of the way with a fold as Yeung and Geliberte went to a showdown with Geliberte at risk.
Derrick Geliberte: J♥10♠
Norman Yeung: A♦K♥
It was a fair fight preflop as the two went to a runout, but the flop was heavily in Yeung's favor when it came 2♣9♠A♠ to give Yeung top pair top kicker.
The Q♠ turn kept Geliberte alive as he could spike a king for a straight, but the 10♦ river was not what he needed, as Geliberte was eliminated.
