Yang Smacks the Flop to Extend Chip Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Xiaohua Yang and Candido Cappiello built a pot of around 700,000 as they went heads-up to the A♥5♦3♦ flop. Yang then bet 210,000 from the hijack and Cappiello called in early position.
The turn was the 6♠ and Yang bet another 800,000. Cappiello folded this time. "Good pass," Yang told him, showing A♦Q♦ for top pair and the nut flush draw as he built his stack up to 11,000,000.
