Kaiser And Yashyn Clash
Level 5
: Blinds 0/0, 500 ante
Action was picked up by Pokernews as Robert Chlorian was contemplating a decision with a 23,000 raise on the button from Richard Kaiser and a call from Yevgeny Yashyn in the big blind position on the turn of two board with:
7♠8♦4♥9♣
K♦10♠2♦4♠
Chlorian folded, exposing a [jx9j] before pitching his hand in the muck. The dealer revealed the river cards.
J♥
10♥
Both players checked and flipped over their hands.
Richard Kaiser: A♣8♣8♥7♣
Yevgeny Yashyn: Q♥6♥5♠3♦
Yashyn flopped the nut straight on the top, improving to a higher straight on the turn, besting Kaiser's set of eights on the top board. No help came for Yashyn on the bottom board as Kaiser's two pair, tens and eights, were enough for him to retrieve his stack.
