Yoon Misses, Heads to Rail

An anguished Daren Yoon after bricking out against Lance Climo
An anguished Daren Yoon after bricking out against Lance Climo

In a battle of the blinds, Daren Yoon bumped it from the small blind with Lance Climo smooth-calling from the big.

On a {A-Diamonds}{9-}{3-Diamonds} flop, Yoon fired out 1,100 only to have Climo make it 3,300. Yoon three-bet to 10,000 and Yoon made the call before moving his last 27,000 in when the {6-} landed on the turn. Climo made the call to put the Australian at risk.

Yoon: {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Climo: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

With Yoon holding a pair and a flush draw against Climo's superior pair, he would unfortunately see the {2-} land on the river to miss his fourteen-outer and render him crippled as Climo soars to 51,900 in chips.

Yoon would finally see his tournament come to a close when his {A-}{Q-} was run down by an opponent's {K-}{Q-} as a king spike on the river.
