Yockey Avoids the Bubble With a Double

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Bryce Yockey

Daniel Alaei raised to 30,000 from under the gun, and Bryce Yockey called in the big blind.

Yockey bet 65,000 on the {j-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop, then called off his last 242,000 when Alaei potted it.

"I've only committed ICM suicide three times this WSOP; might as well make it four!" Yockey said with a wide grin.

Bryce Yockey: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Daniel Alaei: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

Yockey's set was ahead, but Alaei still had an overpair and the nut flush draw to draw to. Yockey ended matters when the {j-Spades} turn gave him quads, and after the {q-Diamonds} fell on the river, Yockey turned around and celebrated, saying, "About f***ing time!"
