Yuetsu Shu celebrates
Hand #29: Down to just 10 big blinds after losing an all in showdown, Yuetsu Shu three-bet shoved from the small blind, only to run straight into a nightmare when initial raiser Hau-Yun Chen snap-called with pocket aces.
Yuetsu Shu: A ♥️ 4 ♥️
Hau-Yun Chen: A ♦️ A ♠️
Shu was in desperate shape, and the flop 6 ♠️ 6 ♣️ 7 ♠️ offered no relief. The turn 8 ♥️ finally gave him a glimmer of hope, with only a five able to complete a straight and save his tournament life.
Against the odds, the river delivered the 5 ♦️ as Shu pulled off a stunning escape, cracking Chen's aces with a runner-runner straight to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
