Reichard Doubles with Rivered Straight
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Yuan Yu opened to 500,000 under the gun and was called by Kaifan Wang on the button. Joshua Reichard had other plans and shoved all in for around 5,000,000, sending Yu to the tank. After a few moments, Yu called, and Wang folded, getting out of the way of showdown.
Joshua Reichard: K♥Q♣ 
Yuan Yu: J♠J♣
Already in the lead, Yu's hand improved to a set when the flop fell A♠7♦J♦. Reichard still had hope of turning things as he also caught himself a gutshot straight draw. The turn 5♠ didn't change anything, but the river 10♦ completed Reichard's straight, evoking an invective from Yu.
Frustrated, Yu stood up, absolutely shocked with the suck-out as the dealer pushed the pot towards Reichard, leaving Yu with only 100,000 behind.
