Yockey Crippled, Guss In Charge

Brandon Guss is on a serious charge here with two tables left. He had just over 200,000 chips when this level began, but he's quickly increased that by more than triple.

Stud Hi/Lo:

We joined the action on fifth street, heads-up between Guss and Bryce Yockey.

Guss: (x-x) / {5-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs} / (x)
Yockey: (x-x) / {A-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} / (x)

Yockey was the one leading the betting when we joined in, firing out on fifth, sixth, and seventh streets. Guss called the first two bets, but on seventh, he snuck in a raise. Yockey's call left him with just 8,000 chips, and he was not going to get any of the pot.

Guss revealed {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} / {5-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs} for the straight and the seventy-six low. Yockey was less than pleased, and he mucked with some frustration to leave himself with just a chip and a chair, essentially.
