Koon Blasts the River on Yu

Level 17 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Jason Koon opened to 150,000 on the button and Ben Yu defended his big blind. An {a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} flop fanned out and Yu check-called a bet of 80,000 to see the {6-Clubs} hit the turn.

Yu checked once more and called when Koon fired 365,000. The {a-Diamonds} completed the board and after needing a time-extension, Yu check-folded to a third barrel worth 800,000 from Koon.
