On a heads-up turn of K♥3♠9♣8♣, Michael Holmes led for 690,000 into the pot of roughly 1,400,000 and Derrick Yamada made the call.
The river came the J♦ and Holmes decided to check, and Yamada checked back.
Holmes flipped over 5♠6♠ for six-high while Yamada tabled K♥3♠ for a flopped two pair to take down the substantial pot, surging him back into the chip lead.

On a heads-up flop of J♠6♠8♣, Derrick Yamada checked to Edward Liu who bet 200,000, but then Yamada check-raised to 700,000.
After some thought, Liu moved all in and Yamada snap-called to put him at risk.
"Wowww, cooler," Liu sighed as he tabled J♣8♥ for two pair, but was in second place to Yamada's flopped set with 6♦6♥.
Liu could still hit a jack or ann eight for a bigger full house, but the runout of 9♠3♠ did not do it and he was sent to the rail in fourth place.

As it is now four-handed, Derrick Yamada is slowly siphoning chips off of his opponents by applying max pressure in big spots. He now holds around 45% of the chips in play, double what Holmes has in second.

Short-stacked Andrew Whitmer moved all in preflop and was called by none other than Derrick Yamada to put him at risk.
Andrew Whitmer: K♥4♥
Derrick Yamada: A♣J♣
Yamada was already ahead with his superior holding, and the runout of A♦10♦Q♥Q♦K♣ only improved him to a straight to take down the pot, eliminating Whitmer in fifth place.
