Jack on Turn Saves Young
Seated next door in the big blind, Alex Triner opts to make it 225,000 which, after a momentary pause, triggers a deep reach from Young and a subsequent all in move.
Sitting back in his chair with his hands on his head, Triner huffs at the mere thought of being involved in such a big pot, but seems already resigned to making the call and holding his breath.
When he does eventually call, he is overjoyed to find that he has his man dominated, Young's in need of divine intervention to keep him in the tournament in the face of Triner's ahead-for-the-time-being .
However, poker is a cruel, cruel game, and although the flop suggests an easy route to victory, it wasn't to be, the on the turn sending a jubilant Young into a wild frenzy.
Whoops and high fives ensue as an elated Young leaps around the table to celebrate with his friends on the rail. The river does nothing but pour salt in already open wounds and leave Triner with a diminished stack of 600,000.
Young, meanwhile, laps up a monster pot and now looks to be in the most confident of moods.
