Ben Yu Triples Stack in Less than Half a Level

Level 9 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Ben Yu is one of the seven players who just registered at the last break. Before the level is halfway over, he is already at almost three times the starting stack.

Just now, with over 30,000 in the pot and the board reading {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, Jared Bleznick checked in early position and Yu bet in middle position. Tom McCormick called on the button and Bleznick called.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and Bleznick checked. Yu bet again and McCormick tank-folded. Bleznick called and the river was the {8-Spades}. Bleznick checked, Yu bet again, and Bleznick called.

Yu showed {J-Spades}{J-Hearts} and that was good.
