Vieth and Vogele Double Up
Mason Vieth raised to 80,000 on the button. Krasimir Yankov three-bet to 260,000 from the big blind, and Vieth called. Yankov put Vieth all in on the 9♦J♠4♠ flop, and Vieth snap-called for his stack of 320,000.
Mason Vieth: Q♦10♥5♥4♣
Krasimir Yankov: A♣K♣9♠9♥
Vieth's straight draw came in on the K♦ turn, and the 7♦ river saw him hold to double up.
"Play bad, run well," Vieth concluded.
Over at another table, Octavian Vogele pushed in his stack of 1,615,000 on a 2♥10♠J♦ flop from under the gun, and he was up against big blind Alex Livingston, who had him covered.
Octavian Vogele: J♥10♦9♦8♠
Alex Livingston: A♥A♣J♠2♠
Vogele had flopped the higher two pair. He improved to a straight on the 7♣ turn, and the 8♣ river changed nothing to secure his double-up.
