Yakovlev Calls With Crabs

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Isaac Baron shoved from the small blind with {Q-Clubs} {9-Hearts}, and big blind Mikhail Yakovlev found {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts} to call off his last 230,000 with.

The board came running {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {K-Clubs}, and the lowly threes hold to double Yakovlev up to 472,000. Baron could afford that hit, but it does knock him down a peg to about 725,000.
