Oya in the Trenches

In a single raised pot to the 7♣5♥2♣ flop, Chongxian Yang checked from the big blind and called when Masashi Oya bet 250,000 from the button.

The J♣ turn checked through to the 8♥ river. Yang led out for 350,000 and was snapped off.

Yang tabled A♦2♠, which was no good against Oya's K♦8♣, which rivered a pair of eights.

The following hand, Taylor von Kriegenbergh opened to 175,000 from under the gun and folded when Oya made it 425,000.
