Yu Eliminated by Thompson
Level 16
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The outer table hasn't provided any major action as of lately but that changed when a battle of the blinds between Winfred Yu and Gary Thompson escalated eventually.
Yu check-called a bet of 120,000 on the A♦K♦8♣10♥ turn. He then jammed the Q♠ river and Thompson called after brief consideration. The Short Deck Super High Roller champion tabled the 5♦4♦ for a busted flush draw, which Thompson had beat holding the 8♠8♦ for a set of eights.
