Yang Bluffs Away Stack, Doubles After

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

At the tail end of a big hand with Jon Turner, Jerry Yang bet 11,000 on the river of a {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} board, and Jon Turner called. Yang was caught bluffing with {A-Spades}{3-Spades}, and Turner had that beat with {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} for two pair.

Two hands later, Yang open-shoved his last 9,875, and the player one seat over called. The rest of the table folded, and the cards were tabled:

Jerry Yang: {J-Spades}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop gave Yang the lead, and he stayed in thanks to the {5-Hearts} turn and {4-Hearts} river.
