Yancey Races for a Double
Niveau 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
James Romero opened for 21,000 from middle position, leaving the action on Kirk Yancey in the cutoff. Yancey took a few minutes before raising all in for his last 63,000. The action folded to Venkata Chinta in the small blind, who four-bet for his remaining stack.
Romero got out of the way after the big blind folded, leaving Yancey at risk.
Kirk Yancey: A♥K♠
Venkata Chinta: Q♠Q♣
Yancey was flipping on the bubble, connecting immediately on the J♣A♠K♦ flop. The 5♣ turn and 4♦ river changed nothing, leaving Yancey's two pair good for the double up.
