Hand 1

Shao Me Yang raised to 6,500 from under the gun and Isaac Haxton three-bet the pot from the button for most of his chips. Yang moved all in and Haxton called with the slightly inferior stack.

Isaac Haxton: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Shao Me Yang: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The board of {A-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Spades} saw Yang pair his ace only for Haxton to river two pair. The stacks were counted and Haxton doubled for 44,800, leaving Yang on around 10,000.

Hand 2

Exactly one hand later, Ka Kwan Lau raised to 7,500 on the button and Yang shoved his remaining few chips in from the big blind, Lau called.

Shao Me Yang: {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Ka Kwan Lau: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The board of {K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{7-Spades} left Yang empty-handed and he had to leave the tournament area just before the end of Day 1.
