Young Wins Some, then Loses Some
Level 25
: Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante
Jason Daly bet from the cutoff and Daniel Young defended his big blind.
The flop came 9♠Q♠4♣ and Young check-called a bet from Daly.
On the 3♠ turn Young checked, Daly bet and Young raised it to two bets. Daly made the call.
Young bet the 5♦ river and was called by Daly. Young tabled 6♠4♠ for a turned flush to take down the pot.
Exactly one orbit later, Nick Pupilllo bet from the hijack and Daniel Young defended his big blind once again.
Action repeated itself on the 5♥K♣J♦ flop, the 8♦ turn and the Q♣ river, with Young check-calling a bet from Pupillo on each street.
Pupillo showed down A♦K♦ for top pair, top kicker for the winner, reducing Young's stack to where it had been one orbit ago.
