Yang Seizes Lead

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Woohyuk Yang
Woohyuk Yang

A huge hand played out just before the break that saw former frontrunner Mazyar Misaghian dust off his whole 200,000 stack to Korea’s Woohyuk Yang, who now holds a commanding lead.

According to Misaghian’s tablemate, Peter Plater, the Australian and Yang became involved in a hand right at the close of level nine that saw Yang flop top two pairs and Misaghian a straight draw.

Misaghian missed his draw and pulled the trigger as a bluff on the river and Yang made the call to win the massive pot and climb to 375,000 in chips and Misaghian bust, though he has re-entered and is sitting with a brand new 30,000 stack over on table nine.
