Yogo's is Bigger

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

The action started with Brett Chalhoub opening to 5,000 from under the gun plus one. Gary Benson made the call from the button, before Iori Yogo bumped it up to 20,000 from the button. Chalhoub got out of the way, and Benson made the call.

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and Yogo checked. Benson made it 17,000 to go and was called shortly after. The turn brought the {k-Hearts} and Yogo quickly checked before Benson instantly moved all in for his last 45,000 in chips. Yogo deliberated over his decision and finally made the call.

Benson: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Yogo: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Benson had made a full house on the turn and was looking in great shape to double up. However the {k-Spades} fell on the river to give Yogo the higher full house as Benson was left shocked, making his way out of the tournament area.

The current ANZ POTY points leader is looking in great shape to take out the title as he moves up to 200,000 in chips.
