Yang Faces a Big Bet

Level 19 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

We just caught the tail end of the pot, but it was noteworthy enough to tell you about it.

When we walked up to the table, there was a board showing {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {7-Spades} out on the table, and Jerry Yang had apparently checked. With about 80,000 in the pot, Sangni Zhao announced that he was all in. It was a big overbet of the pot as bot he and Yang had more than 200,000 chips in front of them at the time.

Yang would spend the next several minutes in the tank, at one point uncapping his cards to take one more peek at them. After another brief pause, he said something quietly and slid his cards to the dealer.

Yang - 230,000
Zhao - 396,000
