YoungSupremacy in Action

After the player under the gun limped in, Jeff "YoungSupremacy" Hakim raised to 1,250. Only the limper called and the two players took a flop of {A-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}. Action was checked to Hakim and he fired a bet of 1,725. His opponent folded and Hakim scooped the pot to move to about 49,000 chips.

Moments later, Hakim check-raised a bet of 1,200 to 3,850 from an opponent on a flop of {9-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {2-Clubs}. The player made the call and the dealer then dealt the {3-Clubs} on the turn. Hakim checked after studying his opponent and asking how much he had left. The player bet 2,500 and Hakim made the call.

The river fell the {5-Hearts} and after a few seconds, Hakim fired out 8,850. His opponent tanked and then mucked his hand. After that pot, Hakim was able to boost his stack to nearly 65,000.
