Yip Outflips Lillis

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ireland's Frank Lillis moved all in from early position for 5,350 and received a call from Hong Kong's Sum Yip on the button. The blinds both folded and the cards were turned up.

Yip: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Lillis: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

It was a classic flip, and Lillis must have liked his chances after the {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop failed to help his opponent. The dealer then burned and turned the {A-Diamonds}, which hit Yip. Lillis seemed a bit crestfallen and watched helplessly as the useless {K-Spades} peeled off on the river.

"Good game guys," he said before exiting the tournament floor just shy of the dinner break.
