Tang Misses Out on Another Opportunity, Sacha Finishes Off Yankowski
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Matthew Yankowski moved all in for 190,000 in the hijack and John Sacha reshoved for 315,000 in the small blind. Yifan Tang was in the big blind and took a few minutes, but he eventually got out of the way and left Sacha heads-up with Yankowski.
Matthew Yankowski: A♦J♥
John Sacha: A♥K♣
Yankowski found himself dominated, and the 8♥4♣5♣5♠5♦ board offered no help as Sacha's king-kicker continued to play to earn him the knockout. Tang later admitted he folded a pocket pair and would've won the hand to knock out both opponents.
