Yeung Stays Alive with Double
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Joseph Shufelberger opened to 4,000 from early position. This led to a call from both Patrick Putman in the small blind and Norman Yeung in the big blind.
Putman checked the flop of 3♥4♠9♠ before Yeung jammed for his final 21,000. Shufelberger folded, but Putman was interested as he made the call to put Yeung at risk.
Norman Yeung: A♣9♦
Patrick Putman: K♠7♠
Yeung had the made hand with top pair, but Putman was far from drawing dead as he held a flush draw and a few outs to a better pair with his king.
The A♦ on the turn limited Putman's outs to just the flush draw.
The river was the wrong suit as it came down the 10♣ to award Yeung the double during the final level of the day.
