Television Runout For Choi
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action was picked up on the flop in a pot between Yuji Yaginuma in the cutoff and Young Choi in the small blind.
Facing a bet of 3,200 on a board reading Q♣4♠2♣, Yaginuma moved all in for 23,400 and Choi went into the tank before calling.
Yuji Yaginuma: K♣4♣
Young Choi: Q♥10♦
"Why would you rip that there?" asked Choi as the turn peeled off a 10♣ to give Yaginuma a king-high flush and Choi two pair.
The pendulum would swing back the other direction as a 10♠ peeled off on the river to give Choi a full house to eliminate Yaginuma from the tournament.
"I don't understand why he would jam there," said Choi after Yaginuma lef the table.
