Yu and Phua Go to the River
Level 20
: Blinds 0/0, 100,000 ante
Winfred Yu limped in with the K?7? and Paul Phua checked the 8?7?. Both hit bottom pair on J?7?6? and Yu check-called fo 250,000. After the Q? turn, Yu checked again and Phua bet 600,000 to claim the pot with the worse kicker.
Another limped pot followed soon after on which both players had a piece of the 9?8?7? flop. Phua bet 200,000 with A?9? and Yu called with the 9?8? for the top two pair, which brought them to the 7? turn.
Phua now checked and subsequently check-called for 550,000 as the 10? river completed the board. This time, they checked and Yu collected the pot.
