Yotsushika Building Up a Big Stack

Level 10 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Kazuhiko Yotsushika
Kazuhiko Yotsushika

Kazuhiko Yotsushika already had a big stack in excess of 75 big blinds and when Sergi Reixach shoved from small to big blind, he thought for a while before calling with {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

He was ahead of the {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} of Reixach, and a queen in the window was good news for him. However there was a five with it on the full {5-Spades}{3-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{a-Spades} runout and he was eliminated.

Yosushika sits on over 800,000 in chips.
