Yamron Flops a Big Draw, Earns a Knockout

Feb 5, 2015

There are five players seeing a flop of 5diamond4club3diamond and Bruce Yamron leads out from the small blind for 7,000, just shy of a pot-sized bet. The big blind raises to 15,000 and action folds back to Yamron, who moves all in.

The big blind quickly calls and tables 6club5spade, giving him top pair and a straight draw. He is up against Yamron’s 10diamond6diamond, giving him the same straight draw and a flush draw with it.

The turn is the Jdiamond, giving Yamron a flush and leaving his opponent drawing dead. The river is an irrelevant Kspade and Yamron takes the pot.

Bruce Yarmon – 71,000
