A Chip and a Chair for Sasaki

Level 6
: Blinds 0/0, 4,000 ante

Nobuaki Sasaki escaped from losing a bullet when his K?Q? has very little equity versus A?J? after a A?7?6? flop. The 8? turn and 9? river brought a straight on the board for the escape.
Soon after, Sasaki got it in with the A?J? and Wei Hsiang Yeu looked him up as slight inferior stack, turning over the Q?Q?.
The pocket pair improved to a full house on the A?Q?7?A?K? as Sasaki was denied the second miracle in a row.
