Sako Drills the Turn to Survive
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Martin Ward raised on the button, and Yuki Sako jammed for around 8,500 from the small blind. Ward quickly called.
Yuki Sako: Q♣J♠
Martin Ward: A♥K♠
Ward was ahead with big slick and moved even further in front on the K♥9♠3♥ flop by pairing his king.
However, the 10♥ on the turn gave Sako the nut straight, although Ward had a flush draw.
The 7♠ river was a brick, and Sako doubled up.
