HIroyuki Yoshimura with a higher two pair


Hiroyuki Yoshimura entered the day running third in chips but it seems, he has now jumped into the leader’s seat after winning a recent pot against Alecz Chan. The hand was kindly provided to us by Hieu Trung Le.

According to Le, Chan opened the betting and Yoshimura called. At the K-Q-9 rainbow flop, Yoshimura check-raised Chan’s 12k bet to make it 35k. Chan called. On the A turn, Yoshimura led for 45k. Chan called. On the Q river, both players checked and their cards were revealed. Chan had K-9 (two pair at the flop) but it wasn’t good enough to take the pot with Yoshimura showing A-3 higher two pair. Hieu added that Yoshimura check-raised with nothing at the flop.

Yoshimura now with over 540K.
