Reza Yazdi Wins One After William Prieto Makes A Good Fold
Jan 20, '18
On a board reading 8547A, Alfred Giardina bet 6,000 and was quickly met with a raise to 16,000 by Reza Yazdi.
The action then fell on William Prieto, who went into the tank. Eventually, he mucked his hand, but not before showing his neighbor a six for a straight.
Giardina made the call with a six of his own, but it was no good as Yazdi showed 96 for a better straight. Yazdi is now up to 52,000 while Prieto is happy to have saved half of his stack with the right fold.
