Gerard Flushes Yang
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Hsiao Yun Yang's stock has fallen further and he is reeling like a punch drunk boxer after going another round with Edwin Gerard, who has padded his chip lead out still further at Yang's expense.
We picked up the action on the river in a blind vs blind battle between the two, just as Gerard fired out a 9,100 river bet into a pot of significantly more on a board reading 
.
Yang called just as we arrived, and looked disgusted when Gerard turned over 
for the nut flush, pitching his cards into the muck and slumping to around 75,000 or so, while Gerard climbed to 175,000.
