Yoon Over One Million After Knocking Out Aldridge
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 9,000 ante
Ken Aldridge opened to 15,000 from the hijack and was called by Brian Yoon in the cutoff and Jonathan Borenstein in the big blind. Borenstein drew two, Aldridge stood pat and Yoon took one.
After the draw Borenstein checked and Aldridge shoved for 59,000. Yoon called while Borenstein folded.
Aldridge had stood pat with 8x7x6x5x2x but Yoon had made 8x5x4x3x2x for eight-perfect to send Aldridge to the rail and become the first player to pass one million chips.
