Yussuke Bluffs to Survive
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 0 ante
Two hands after arriving at the table, Loic Menneteau found pocket nines, flopped a full house, and doubled up through “Yussuke”.
With only 1,400 chips left, Yussuke moved all-in a few times over the next hands to win some blinds. Then, on the button, he opened to 200 and was called by Cameron Sinclair in the small blind.
They checked the 8♦3♦9♦ flop, leading to the A♠ turn, where Yussuke bet 300. Sinclair quickly check-called and then checked the 10♠ river.
Yussuke bet 1,000, nearly his entire stack, and managed to make Sinclair fold a nine. “I won?” Sinclair asked while folding. “Yes,” Yussuke confirmed, revealing Q♦7♠.
