Yang Survives a Sweat
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
A player in middle position had a raise of 5,500 in front of him before Yishu Yang moved all in for 22,000 on the button. The small blind then reshoved, and the middle-position player folded, saying he had two nines.
Yishu Yang: 7♦7♠ 
Opponent: A♣Q♣
Yang was racing for her tournament life as the flop came 10♥4♣3♦. The turn came the 7♣ to give her a set, but her opponent picked up a flush draw. The river was the 2♦ and Yang survived to double up.
"The turn was the perfect card," another tablemate said after the hand.
