Yockey Gives it Up

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante

Josh Arieh bet 325,000 in a blinds battle on a board of {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, and Bryce Yockey check-raised to 700,000. Arieh thought a bit and called. On the {k-Spades} river, Yockey checked. Arieh put him all in for a little over 700,000.

"This any good?" Yockey asked as he flashed {q-}{j-} for a straight before mucking.

"You made your hand!" Arieh said with a laugh.

"It isn't good though," Yockey said, flatly.

"Then why'd you put all that money in?"

"I really thought that was going to work, too," Yockey said with a smile a few moments later.
