Yawkey Straight Flushes Opponent Out of Contention

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Shaun Yawkey
Shaun Yawkey

A player in early position was all in against Shaun Yawkey in the cutoff for about 70,000 total on a {q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop when hands were revealed.

Shaun Yawkey: {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Early-position player: {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

Yawkey had flopped an open-ended straight flush draw and was a slight favorite against his opponent's two pair.

The {a-Spades} turn filled Yawkey's straight and the {a-Clubs} river improved his hand to a straight flush — sending his opponent to the rail in style.
