Hand #14 - Jerry Yang Takes an 11.39 Million Pot

Hand #14 - Lee Watkinson has the button in seat 5, Jerry Yang raises from the cutoff to 2.5 million, and Philip Hilm thinks for a few minutes before he calls from the big blind.

The flop comes {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, Hilm checks, Yang bets 3 million, and Hilm thinks for about 30 seconds before he calls.

The turn card is the {3-Diamonds}, Hilm checks, Yang moves all in, and Hilm folds. Jerry Yang takes the pot worth 11.39 million, and he has become our new chipleader.

Note: Once again, Yang makes a very large opening raise. But that amount is correct. The big blind was 240,000, and Yang opened the pot for 2.5 million.
