Gin for Yin

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Simeon Spasov opened to 500 from early position before Derek Whitt called from the next seat over. Yuzhou Yin joined the fray with a call on the button before Yong Lee opted to increase the price with a three-bet to 3,000 from the small blind.

Spasov folded, while Whitt and Yin called.

The J105 flop prompted a check from Lee before Whitt bet 11,000. Yin gave it some thought before he put in the call, while Lee discarded his hand with a fold.

Whitt asked for a count before he put out enough to put Yin all in on the Q turn. Yin slid in the call, and the two went to a showdown with Yin at risk for 34,500.

Yuzhou Yin: 98All in
Derek Whitt: 55

The turn was a disaster for Whitt, and Yin hit his straight to take the lead, but Whitt was far from down and out with a chance to improve to a full house or quads on the river.

That did not come to pass as the river was the 8 to award Yin the large pot.
