Yan Gets Creative
''earthquakex'' raised to 2,070 from middle position and received calls from ''1_Stamf0rd'' on the button, David "MissOracle" Yan in the small blind, and ''Naveja8'' from the big blind.
The flop of 4?10?6? was checked by the quartet of players before Yan led for 2,931 when the 6? turn fell. ''Naveja8'' and ''earthquakex'' folded, but ''1_Stamf0rd'' was not going anywhere and made the raise to 9,243. Yan responded with a massive three-bet to 39,150 and ''1_Stamf0rd'' made the call.
The Q? river completed the board, and Yan took his foot of the pedal with a check. ''1_Stamf0rd'' followed suit and Yan could show nothing but 5?3? for some missed draws. The trips of ''1_Stamf0rd'', who tabled 8?6?, were enough to rake in the big pot, and he soared above two starting stacks.
