Alexander Ugay celebrates a lucky river against Kam Ip Yuk

Alexander Ugay narrowly escaped elimination at the hands of big stacked Kam Ip Yuk. We caught the action at the result but we were given a quick rundown by one of the players. On a turn board of 6♦ 7♦ J♣ 8♠, Big blind Yuk checked, Ugay bet, Yuk raised, Ugay shoved, and Yuk with the quick-call.

Yuk J♥ 6♥ two pair
Ugay A♠ J♦ top pair

Needing some luck on the river, the A♥ appeared to improved Ugay to a higher two pair. Ugay doubled up to over 300K while Yuk dropped but still very health with around 400K.
