Isaac Haxton called from early position with {k-Hearts}{10-Spades}, Paul Phua limped in the cutoff with {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} and Richard Yong checked the button, holding {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

The dealer fanned out {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}, action checked to Yong who bet 105,000 with his two pair. Haxton folded, Phua raised to 300,000 and Yong moved all in for 530,000, Phua called.

An {8-Spades} landed on the turn and Yong's two pair was still ahead. The unfortunate {a-Clubs} fell on the river, giving Phua a rivered straight and Yong was sent to the payout desk in fifteenth.
