Sasaki Gambles But Doesn't Get There
Level 7
: Blinds 0/0, 5,000 ante
Facing the all-ins of Jun Wah Yap and Wei Hsiang Yeu, the latter of which was on the cutoff, Nobuaki Sasaki on the button had a decision to make. He took two time bank extensions and vividly motioned that he thought about taking a gamble for a triple up or not. The decision was to call it off eventually as a small crowd gathered around the table.
Nobuaki Sasaki: 9♣8♣
Wei Hsiang Yeu: J♦J♣
Jun Wah Yap: Q♦Q♠
Yap had the best of it and he earned the pot thanks to a A♠Q♣9♦6♣6♠ board, as Sasaki missed out on a gutshot and flush draw.
Also featured on the table are now Ghai Pang Yap as well as Wei Zheng Ng, who both recently entered.
