Yuan Drags a Big One as Sato Exits the Tournament
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ricardo Macias raised to 1,600 and was called by Cliff Yuan before Akira Sato three-bet to 5,600 in the big blind. Both Macias and Yuan made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of 10♥4♥4♠ and Sato checked to Macias as he fired out a bet of 7,000. Yuan called and Sato called as well.
The 6♣ hit the turn and both Macias and Sato checked to Yuan who dropped five chips across the line for a bet of 25,000. Sato had 18,000 behind and called it off before Macias' cards hit the muck.
Akira Sato: 8♣8♥
Cliff Yuan: A♦10♦
Yuan had out-flopped Sato's eights and Sato exited the tournament as the 7♠ landed on the river.
