Young Drills One-Outer to Bust Two and Approach Chip Lead
A wild hand at table 38 has brought the field two players closer to night's end and send Maxwell Young toward the chip lead.
Young opened to 7,000 in middle position and was met with a jam to 45,000 by a player in the cutoff. Johnny Landreth then four-bet to 100,000 on the button.
Back on Young, he jammed for over 200,000 with Landreth covered and Landreth happily called off his last 70,000, creating a massive three-way pot.
Cutoff player: 
Johnny Landreth: 
Maxwell Young: 
Landreth was in prime position to win a huge pot, but the board still had to be dealt.
The flop came 
, leaving the cutoff needing running jacks, or for Young, the final king in the deck.
Sure enough, the dealer dropped the 
on the turn, bringing Young his one-outer for the ultimate suckout.
The 
on the river didn't bring Landreth one of the two outs he needed for the ultimate re-suckout, and a massive pot was pushed to Young, who now has the second biggest stack in the room with just two more eliminations needed to end play for the night.
