Carroll Yoyo-ing

Cory Carroll was heads-up with a player at the turn stage with the board reading {10-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {3-Spades}. He check-called a 10,300 bet before the river came {8-Hearts}. This time he snap-called a 25,000 bet but mucked upon seeing the {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs} of his opponent. That put him down to 25,000.

Shortly afterwards he was up to 140,000 after making another snap call to a preflop all in bet. This time he held {A-Spades} {K-Spades} to his opponent's {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}. The board ran {K-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {A-Clubs}.
