Yazdi Turns a Flush; Boudreau Busts Anderson

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Reza Yazdi
Reza Yazdi

In a three-bet pot, a player in the cutoff shoved all in for about 200,000 on a board of {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and got snapped by Reza Yazdi on the button, who had {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. His opponent was upset at Yazdi's holding, showing {a-}{8-} for two pair. Yazdi faded the aces and eights as a {2-Diamonds} hit the river.

At another table, Kevin Boudreau is back atop the counts after busting Steve Anderson.

Vail Fades Bohn's Massive-Outer

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Blake Bohn
Blake Bohn

Blake Bohn shipped 78,000 under the gun and was called by Geoff Vail in the small blind.

Bohn flipped over the {a-Spades}.

"That's the one I looked at," he said, as his opponent showed {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

Bohn then turned over the {6-Diamonds}.

"Classic race," Bohn said, happy to have solid equity.

The dealer spread a flop of {7-Spades}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts}, giving Bohn a few more outs, and the {k-Spades} turn gave him still more with a flush draw. Bohn was left wondering how he could miss so many outs when the {2-Diamonds} fell, and he walked away counting his outs aloud.

Hayes Busts Mader

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Phil Mader
Phil Mader

Phil Mader put in his 100,000 stack in middle position, and John Hayes called from the cutoff. The blinds and button folded.

Mader: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Hayes: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Mader asked for hearts after the {3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop, but his best hope was a chop after the {7-Clubs} turned. An {8-Hearts} didn't do it, and "JohnnyGstaks" shook the Nebraskan's hand as he exited.
