Yau Runs Up a Healthy Stack
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Logan Hoover raised to 2,200 and earned three callers including Ethan Yau in the small blind. The flop brought 9?6?4? and the action checked to Hoover, who bet 1,800. It folded back to Yau who went for a check-raise to 7,000 and Hoover came along for the ride.
Yau then led the K? turn for 14,000 but Hoover came back with a raise to 35,000 for Yau to call.
The 3? river was checked by Yau and Hoover tossed in a green T-25,000 chip for a final stab at the pot. Yau called and no showdown followed, as Hoover sent his cards into the muck.
Having started the day with a shorter stack, Yau has more than quadrupled the amount since.
