The 2007 WSOP Main Event Champ Exits

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

We noticed that the seat formerly occupied by 2007 World Series of Poker champ Jerry Yang was empty. That led us to believe that he had been eliminated from the tournament, and a quick check with Fatima Moreira de Melo confirmed that was the case.

According to her, Yang got his short stack all in on a {10-}{8-}{6-} flop holding {7-}{7-} against Iaron Lightman, who had {a-}{a-}. Neither the turn nor river delivered Yang salvation, and his Main Event came to an end in the last level of Day 1c.
