Soverel Short After Calling Yankov's Nuts
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Heads up to the 6♠5♥9♦ flop, Krasimir Yankov bet 75,000 from the small blind, and Sam Soverel called in the big blind. Yankov sized up to 275,000 on the A♠ turn, which Soverel also called.
Yankov then completed his triple-barrel by firing 675,000 on the 3♣ river. Soverel spent some minutes in the tank, but ultimately called.
"I've got it," Yankov stated before he tabled 8♥7♥7♦5♠ for the nut straight. Soverel added his cards to the muck, being left with roughly ten big blinds.
