Yang Earns the Title of Bubble Boy
Level 17
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Nao Yang opened the action with a raise from under the gun and was three-bet by Richard Gamez in the hijack to 125,000. Yang thought for a moment before making the call.
The flop came K♣6♣9♠ and Yang moved all in for 303,000 to put himself at risk. Gamez snap called.
Nao Yang: Q♣J♣ 
Richard Gamez: K♠K♦
Gamez was in the lead with a set of kings but Yang had plenty of outs with a gutshot and a flush draw.
The turn landed the 4♠ and the river brought the 8♠ and Gamez's set of kings remained best to send Yang packing on the stone bubble.
