Aldemir Breaks 1 Million
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Robert Koellner opened to 35,000 with 
from the cutoff and was called by reigning WSOP Main Event Champion Koray Aldemir and Yao Yin from the blinds.
Aldemir held the 
and checked his top pair on the 
flop. Yin bet 75,000 with his 
and Koellner got out of the way. Aldemir called.
Aldemir checked again and Yin immediately moved all in as the covering stack on the 
turn. Aldemir, with 415,000 behind, made the call after taking some moments to think over his options.
The 
river was safe for the German and brought his stack to over 1,000,000.
