Yamada Retakes the Lead
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
On a heads-up turn of K?3?9?8?, Michael Holmes led for 690,000 into the pot of roughly 1,400,000 and Derrick Yamada made the call.
The river came the J? and Holmes decided to check, and Yamada checked back.
Holmes flipped over 5?6? for six-high while Yamada tabled K?3? for a flopped two pair to take down the substantial pot, surging him back into the chip lead.
