River Queen Saves Pogson
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action was picked up on the turn as the board read 7♥K♦10♥9♦. From the small blind, James Pogson jammed all in for 57,000 over a bet of 11,500 from Nick Yunis in early position.
Yunis studied Pogson and the pot of about 25,000 as he thought it over. Eventually he called to put Pogson at risk.
James Pogson: J♣10♣ 
Nick Yunis: K♥Q♣
Yunis lead with top pair but the river was the Q♠ to hit the straight for Pogson as he stayed alive and Yunis was left shaking his head in disgust.
