Action folded to Phil Laak on the button and he potted to 52,000, which Bryce Yockey called from the big blind. It was heads up to the flop, which saw Yockey check-call a bet of 48,000. When the was put out on the turn, Yockey check-called another bet, this time 174,000.

The completed the board and Yockey checked one last time. Laak thought for a few moments before sliding in the remainder of his stack . . . 527,000! Yockey snap-called only to muck when Laak rolled over for trip threes with the nut low.

With that, Laak takes a commanding chip lead while Yockey was reduced to just 328,000.
