Xu Set of Aces Cripples Yam with Two-Pair

Level 4: 200 / 400 ante: 400

A heated betting battle erupted between Liangli Xu in middle position and Edward Yam in the big blind.

On a A♠ J♣ 9♣ , Xu led out for 1,200, only to be met with a check-raise to 4,200 from Yam. Perplexed by the move, Xu responded with a three-bet to 8,000.

Yam, sensing an opportunity, asked for a count of Xu’s remaining stack. After some deliberation, he declared all-in. Xu, visibly unsettled, even removed his face mask to stare Yam down before finally making the call, putting his tournament life at risk.

Liangli Xu: A♦ A♣ Edward Yam: J♦ 9♦

Upon seeing Xu’s set against his two-pair, Yam tapped the table in resignation. The K♦ turn and 3♠ river changed nothing, securing the double-up for Xu.
