Yu Finds a Double Up from the Big Blind

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

The action folded around to Michael Bailey who raised it up on the button. Ben Yu was in the big blind and the two players quickly got all of the chips in the middle preflop with Yu at risk for 134,000.

Ben Yu: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Michael Bailey: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The flop fell {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Yu remained out front with an overpair. The {2-Hearts} on the turn changed nothing and the {k-Spades} on the river ensured Yu of a double up.
