Yen Scores Knockout
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After a raising war preflop between Alex Yen in the small blind and the player in the big blind, all the chips hit the middle with Yen just barely covering his opponents stack of 69,000.
Big Blind: K♠K♥7♠2♥
Alex Yen: A♠A♣J♠8♦
Yen was well out front with his aces, and when the board ran out 10♥9♦7♦3♥4♠, it was the flopped straight for Yen that scored the pot to send his opponent to the exit with ten minutes left on the day.
Meanwhile on the same table, Mitchell Watson has one of the biggest stacks in the room with close to half a million.
