Early Christmas for Yoon
Niveau 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
With only very few chips in to the 
flop - 1,100 apiece preflop to be precise - and Jongwon Yoon raised a 2,500 bet by Arthur Kalantzis to 7,000, Kalantzis reraised to 13,000. Yoon moved all in for well over 40,000 and Kalantzis gave it just some consideration before calling it off for more than 35,000.
Arthur Kalantzis: 
Jongwon Yoon: 
The 
turn gave Kalantzis some further outs, but the 
river was a blank. Kahle Burns and Chin Wei Lim shook their heads in disbelief and once all was over, John Hagen joked "Merry Chrismas" to table neighbor Yoon.
