Mike Matusow wandered over to the final table. Tournament Director Jack Effel asked the audience to recognize one of his favorite players. Matusow got a mixed reaction from the crowd. Some of the audience cheered while a loud wave of boos slowly drowned out the Matusow fans.

Hand #101 - Jerry Yang has the button in seat 4, Alex Kravchenko raises under the gun to 1.1 million, and Yang calls from the button.

The flop comes {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}, and both players check. The turn card is the {K-Diamonds}, Kravchenko checks, Yang bets 1.7 million, and Kravchenko thinks for about two minutes before he folds. Jerry Yang shows one card -- the {A-Clubs} -- as he collects the pot.

On the first hand after the dinner break on Hand #92, Tuan Lam came from behind to double up against Jerry Yang. Despite the double up, Yang still held over 60 million in chips and close to 48% of the total chips in play. Alex Kravchenko won a big pot on Hand #95 but is still the short stack.

After the first 100 hands, Yang won 39 or exactly 39% of the pots at the final table. He is still the chipleader.
