Yang On the Up and Up

Jerry Yang was all in of a board reading {A-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and received a call from a single opponent. Yang showed {9-Spades}{10-Hearts} and was ahead of his opponent's {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}.

Yang needed to avoid an ace, king or three on the river and managed to do so when it fell the {2-Diamonds}. Yang doubled on the hand and is now sitting with 9,000.
