Muhire Turns the Nuts, Gets Paid by Yun

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Sam Yun opened to 40,000 from late position and Bernard Muhire called in the cutoff. Yun checked in the dark before the {2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop fanned out and Muhire checked behind.

The turn was the {j-Spades} and Yun shoved. Muhire double-checked his cards before calling, putting himself at risk.

Muhire: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Yun: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Muhire turned the nuts and left Yun drawing dead. The meaningless {2-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and Muhire doubled up.
