Yusef Hits the River
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
On a heads-up flop of K♠10♥2♠. Kamoru Yusef led for 500 and was then raised to 2,500 by Nicholas Burnett. Yusef calls the raise and the two continue to the turn J♥, where they both check.
The river fell the 9♠, bringing in the straight and the flush, and Yusef led for 5,000. After some thought, Burnett sighed and laid it down, at which point Yusef showed him Q♣Q♠ for a straight on the river.
