Not long ago, Xin Yuan was down to only 80,000 – ten big blinds in this level. He open raises and earns two callers to then bet after the flop from an early position. Marc Joseph raises big for most of his remaining chips to force out a third player and then calls all-in for 226,000 in the cutoff once Yuan moves all-in with the covering stack.

Marc Joseph: .
Xin Yuan: .

Joseph is ahead with top pair and top kicker but needs to dodge a lot of outs. One of them instantly comes with the turn to leave Joseph with two queens and two tens as only outs. The river is the and the bubble bursts.

Xin Yuan – 684,000 (86 bb)
