Yang Shoves Twice, Doubles

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Hsien Yuan Yang just doubled up through Xixiang Luo after reraising Luo all in from the button.

One hand before, Connor Drinan opened for 75,000 from the button and Yang shoved all in over the top from the small blind. Drinan took a few moments before deciding to fold.

The next hand Luo opened from under the gun for 70,000 and the action folded to Yang on the button. He shoved all in again, for 385,000. Luo looked like he considered folding, but decided to call. He showed {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and was in a race against Yang's {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

The race was over pretty quick when Yang hit an ace on the {a-Spades}{2-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop and the rest of the board {6-Spades}{7-Hearts} didn't bring Luo a ten. Yang started the day at 370,000 and well below the rest of the pack. After the double up, he is right in the thick of things about one hour into play.
