Yockey and Ball Knock Out a Shorter Stack
Level 14
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Three ways to the 
, a late entrant in the small blind bet the pot and then faced the pot-sized raise of Scott Ball and the all-in of Bryce Yockey for 664,000. The small blind called it off and Ball also called to create a three-way showdown.
Small blind: 
Bryce Yockey: 
Scott Ball: 
When the 
fell on the river, Yockey let out a quick "fuck" as he misread the cards of Ball and thought he'd made the superior straight with one card half-hidden. However, both big stacks had the equally strong hand and sent the shorter stack to the rail.
