Yu Spikes a Queen on the River to Stay In It
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Lei Yu limped in from the small blind, before Blaz Zerjav raised all in for Yu's stack of 6,275,000. Yu wasted little time and made the call to put himself at risk.
Lei Yu: K♠Q♠ 
Blaz Zerjav: A♦8♣
It was a fair fight, but Yu would have to improve past the ace high of Zerjav to stay in the tournament. The board ran out 2♦7♣9♠4♥Q♦ and Yu hit a queen on the river to double up, and claim the chip lead once more.
