Hand #149: Sean Yu Wins! ($260,000)

Jul 10, 2014

Champion Sean Yu
Sean Yu (pictured) raises to 1,750,000, Kareem Marshall reraises to 6,000,000, and Yu calls. The flop comes [10c8s7c], and Marshall quickly moves all in.

Yu snap-calls with [10d7d] for two pair, tens and sevens, and Marshall turns over [AdKd] for ace high. Marshall needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn is the [Jc], giving Marshall a gutshot straight draw, but the river is the [Ah].

Sean Yu wins the pot — and the tournament — with two pair, tens and sevens.

Kareem Marshall finishes as the runner-up, earning $180,000.

Sean Yu wins the partypoker presents: WPT500 at ARIA Resort & Casino, earning $260,000, a seat in next year’s event with accommodations at ARIA Resort & Casino, and a $2,000 package to travel and play in the partypoker presents: WPT500 at Dusk Till Dawn that is scheduled for November 11-16, 2014 in Nottingham, United Kingdom. Yu also receives a trophy from the WPT, and another trophy from the ARIA Resort & Casino.
