Yuan Drags a Big One as Sato Exits the Tournament
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ricardo Macias raised to 1,600 and was called by Cliff Yuan before Akira Sato three-bet to 5,600 in the big blind. Both Macias and Yuan made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of 10?4?4? and Sato checked to Macias as he fired out a bet of 7,000. Yuan called and Sato called as well.
The 6? hit the turn and both Macias and Sato checked to Yuan who dropped five chips across the line for a bet of 25,000. Sato had 18,000 behind and called it off before Macias' cards hit the muck.
Akira Sato: 8?8?
Cliff Yuan: A?10?
Yuan had out-flopped Sato's eights and Sato exited the tournament as the 7? landed on the river.
