Double For Yu
It��s getting to push or fold time for some of the remaining High Rollers as the blinds continue their inexorable rise. One player who that��s working out for is Chung Yuan Yu, who has just earned himself a double up courtesy of James Chen.
We missed the pre-flop action but arrived in time to see the stacks being counted down. Yu and Chen had got all the chips in pre-flop with Yu��s pocket jacks leading Chen��s pocket tens. The flop had come down jack-high to give Yu top set and the double and he climbed to just under 100,000 while Chen dropped to a little over 70,000.
Over on table three Yuan Li and Wang Zuo became involved in a pre-flop raising war with Zuo the man to pull the trigger first and move all-in for 97,500 in total from the big blind, over the top of a 14,000 Li raise.
Li looked sorely tempted but decided to let it go, however, leaving Zuo to rake in the pot without even seeing a flop.
