Jason Young racks up his chips for a table break

Jason Young’s table was playing their last hand. A tournament floor staff member was standing behind the dealer with chip racks in his hand, preparing to break the table as soon as the hand was complete.

Young was heads up with the board reading JdTh7hKd8c when he tossed out a Value Town bet of 26,500. His opponent thought for a minute and called. Young tabled 9h8h for the flopped straight/open-ended straight flush draw to take the hand and move up to 367,000.

James Calderaro was sitting to his direct left before the table broke, and the WPT Champion is up to 338,000.
