Ylamaki Makes a Big Fold
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mikko Ylamaki opened to 60,000 from middle position and Rehman Kassam three-bet to 250,000 from the small blind. Ylamaki made the call.
The flop came A?J?3?. Kassam bet 140,000 and Ylamaki made the call.
Kassam slowed down with a check on the 2? turn and Ylamaki bet 150,000, receiving a call from his opponent.
Ylamaki fired again when checked to on the 4? river, this time for 200,000. Kassam announced all in for 595,000 sending Ylamaki into the tank.
After about two minutes Ylamaki folded, showing the Q? for the second-nut flush, allowing Kassam to scoop a substantial pot without having to go to showdown.
