Yu Straightens Out Sukonthachartnant
Level 22
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
A sizable pot recently played out between Chung Yuan Yu and Phanlert Sukonthachartnant that has further cemented Yu’s lead.
We caught the action on the turn with the board reading 
with over 100,000 in blinds and antes in the pot as Yu and Sukonthachartnant battled it out from the small and big blind respectively.
Yu checked from the small blind and Sukonthachartnant fired out what looked to be close to a pot-sized bet of 90,000, which Yu quickly called.
The 
paired the board and completed the hand and Yu now chose to lead for 150,000 and was called pretty quickly by Sukonthachartnant. However, the Thai player could only tap the table and muck when Yu turned over 
for the flopped straight.
