Yang Straightens Out Opponent

On a board of {6-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades} and the pot sitting around the 2,500-chip mark, Jerry Yang check-raised to 4,000 over an opponent's 1,300-chip bet.

Yang made the call when his opponent moved all in for an additional 1,000 and tabled his {8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for the nuts as his opponent rolled over jus {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}.

The river landed the meaningless {Q-Clubs} and Yang eliminated his opponent to move to around the 18,000-chip mark.
