It's a No for Yeh

Wow, no sooner than I'd joked about it than Anthony Yeh actually did take an enormous hit in a completely crazy hand that left him down to 47,000.

With the gent on the button all in preflop, Yeh checked the {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {3-Hearts} flop and called a 9,000 bet from the other gentleman in the hand. They proceeded to the {5-Hearts} turn and Yeh checked again, but undeterred, his opponent bet 10,000. Yeh reluctantly laid down his hand and the all-in player and the aggressive bettor flipped their hands over.

Mr. All In Preflop: {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}
Mr. Aggressive: a very esoteric {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}

River: {7-Hearts}

The short stack doubled, Mr. Aggressive won the very chunky side pot, and Yeh is fuming.
