Yin Backs Into a Straight to Survive

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Pascal Monarque was on the button and William Yin was in the small blind. Yin managed to get his stack of 13,950 in the middle before the flop and was called by Monarque.

Yin was at risk with {9-Spades}{6-Clubs} and was dominated by Monarque's {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Monarque was still well ahead with ace-high. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and Yin picked up a straight draw. Sure enough, the river was the {5-Hearts} and Yin made his straight to double up.
