Yeh Wins Back-to-Back Pots
Hand #1:
Yi-Cheng Yeh opened under the gun to 40,000. Next to act called and the big blind defended.
The 4?10?7? flop landed and the big blind opted to lead for about half pot to 60,000. Yeh tank called and the third player folded. The turn brought a 3? and action checked through. The Q? river hit the felt and action checked to Yeh who put out 75,000. The big blind couldn't keep up the story any longer and hit cards hit the muck.
Hand #2:
A middle position player opened to 55,000 and the button called. Action was then on Yeh in the big blind who didn't think for long before announcing all in having both players covered. The original raiser folded and the button went into the tank but eventually called it off.
Button Player: K?Q?
Yi-Cheng Yeh: J?J?
It was a classic flip going to a run out of 4?7?A?6?8? which left Yeh with a pile of chips and his opponent heading to the rail.
