Yeh Shows the Power of Position and a Big Stack

Barry Schultz and Philip Yeh are two of the biggest stacks remaining in this tournament. Naturally, they are wary of tangling with each other. In a recent hand, Schultz raised preflop to 82,000. Action folded to Yeh on the button, who made it 230,000 to go. Both blinds folded, and Schultz quickly flashed {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} before throwing his hand in the muck.
