Conniff Makes a Huge Call Which Sends Yin Tumbling Down the Leaderboard
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Yuzhou Yin raised the button to 400,000 and Asher Conniff defended his big blind.
The dealer put out a flop of 8♠A♣5♦ and Conniff check-called a bet of 200,000 from Yin.
A 3♦ landed on the turn and after Conniff checked, Yin fired a second bullet of 350,000. Conniff called.
An A♦ completed the board and Conniff checked for a third time, and Yin shoved all in for 1,200,000 effective, which put Conniff to the test for his remaining chips. Conniff ran the hand through in his mind and eventually slid forward his entire stack and made the call.
Yin tabled K♠10♣ for just king-high, but Conniff had picked off the bluff with K♦8♣ for a flopped pair of eights.
