Matthew Yorra

Neil Blumenfield limped under the gun, and a player behind him called. Matthew Yorra squeezed all in with his big stack in position, and the big blind was already all in for his last 9,500. Blumenfield and the player behind him both folded, and Yorra was heads-up with a chance at a knockout.

Yorra: 9s9h
Big blind: Kh9d

The board ran out AhQd5c2h6d, and Yorra’s pair held. He moved into a dead heat with Aron Dermer for the chip lead, trimming the field to 17 players as he collected that pot.

Matthew Yorra – 455,000 (28 bb)
