Michael Youngman Takes Early Day Chip Lead
Myung Shin raises to 8,000 in the cutoff, and Mark Johnson Jr. Reraises to 18,000 on the button. Michael Youngman, who started the day fifth in chips, pauses in the small blind before reraising to 52,000. The big blind folds and Shin announces that he is all in for around 97,000. Johnson folds and Youngman calls.
Shin:
Youngman:
The flop comes giving Youngman the lead with his two pair, aces and sevens. Unfortunately for Shin the turn and river do not improve his hand and he is eliminated from play early in the first level.
Winning this pot has now given Youngman the early day chip lead.
Michael Youngman - 420,500 (140 bb)
Myung Shin - Eliminated
