Yarbrough Unable to Hold
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
In the final hand before the break, Victor Caballero raised to 320,000 from the hijack before Grant Yarbrough three-bet to 500,000 on the button. Aware of impending pay jumps, Yarbrough had left himself 225,000 behind.
When the action folded back to Caballero, he moved all in, and after a minute had passed, Yarbrough made the call, apologising for tanking.
Grant Yarbrough: A♣K♠
Victor Caballero: A♥3♥
The flop had something for everyone, coming out K♥9♥A♠. Top two pair for Yarbrough and a pair and a flush draw for Caballero.
The turn 2♥ shot Cabellero into the lead, and when the river 8♥ didn't provide a full house for Yarbrough, he said his goodbyes and headed to the exit.
