Diebold Doubles Through Yu
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 18,000 ante
George Alexander opened to 30,000 from the hijack and was called by Ben Yu in the cutoff.
Ben Diebold three-bet to 130,000, leaving himself just 1,000 behind. Alexander folded, but Yu shoved to force Diebold all in. Diebold called.
Diebold stood pat and Yu drew one.
Ben Diebold: 10x7x5x4x2x
Ben Yu: 8x6x3x2x
Yu turned over an 8x — pairing his eight and awarding Diebold the double up.
