The first round went:
Alex Yen was in the small blind when the player in late position raised all in for about 280,000 and Yen called.
Alex Yen: K♠K♥
Late position player: A♥J♠
The board came out 9♣K♦9♦2♣Q♦ and Yen won the first round with a full house.
The next hand Yen was on the button and the same player with a very short stack went all in for about 35,000. Yen called quickly.
Middle position player: J♦8♦
Alex Yen: Q♦Q♠
This board did not offer any hope to the middle position player who was knocked out when it came 9♠3♠3♦2♣Q♥ and Yen won again with a full house.
The player beside Yen stated, "We call this guy the face melter".
