Yang Drills River To Scoop

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Action was picked up with one player all-in and at risk for a main pot of about 17,000 and Jerry Yang and an opponent playing for a side pot.

On a board reading {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds} Yang checked to his opponent who moved all-in for 10,300 effective which sent Yang into the tank. He took a look around the room to see what the line to re-enter was looking like. After some thinking he called.

At-risk player: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Jerry Yang: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The turn of {10-Hearts} did not change anything, but the river {8-Hearts} gave Yang the only pair of the bunch and the 2007 WSOP Main Event Champion more than doubled.
