Short-Stacked Yan Survives
Level 6
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The action folded to Alejandro Lococo in the small blind as he pushed four green chips across the line. David Yan had just 17,000 left in the big blind and shrugged it off as he made the call.
David Yan: J♥3♦
Alejandro Lococo: 7♠2♠
Yan was ahead with his jack-high, and the A♦Q♣J♣ left Lococo drawing thin. The 8♥ turn meant Yan remained in the tournament, and the 3♥ river was just a formality.
