So Close To A Millball

Matt Yates has finally started to build a bit of momentum after sitting around the same chip mark for the last hour. Yates would fall just shy of the elusive seven-figure chip stack after this hand played out.

Schreiner raised from the button and Yates snapped him off. The flop fell {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and Yates would check-raise a bet of 55,000 from Schreiner, making it 127,000 to go. A call from Schreiner would see the {q-Clubs} hit the turn and both players would check to see the {8-Spades} land on the river. Yates led for 99,000 and Schreiner slid his cards into the muck and sent the pot to Yates.
