Li Straightens Out Shin to Double
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Byung Shin opened to 16,000 on the button before Yang Li jammed for 181,000 from the big blind. Shin confirmed the count before he stuck in the call.
Yang Li: A♦5♦ 
Byung Shin: A♥Q♥
Li was in rough shape as his ace was dominated until the 8♠7♣6♦ flop gave him an open-ender. The 9♥ came on the turn to give Li the straight and he avoided a chop on the K♠ river to find the full double and survive.
