Brian Yoon: XxXx/2? - folded bring-in
Maxx Coleman completed Brian Yoon's bring-in and was met with a two-bet by a short-stacked Ben Yu. Yoon folded and Coleman called.
Picking up an ace on fourth street, Yu bet out with the lead and got another call from Coleman.
On fifth street, Yu bet again, but now Coleman raised. Yu called, leaving himself just a single big bet.
Yu went ahead and bet on sixth with Coleman calling to put Yu at risk.
Coleman held tens with an open-ended straight draw, while Yu had jacks in the hole for a superior pair to take to seventh street.
Yu picked up a second pair of fours on the end and Coleman failed to improve, sending a double-up to Yu.
Shortly after, Coleman lost a smaller pot to Dan Shak, sliding further away from chip leader Brian Yoon.
