Richard Yong and Winfred Yu were spotted standing up from their seats while the cards were about to be turned over on yet another crazy three-way all in. Yu was the player at immediate risk for his last 66,000 and had the best of it with the {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}. Yong had him covered by some and showed the {9-Spades}{8-Spades}, while Kaplan turned over the {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Yu tripled up with a straight, as per Short Deck rule the aces also plays as a five. Yong's two pair left him with a double up through Kaplan for 42,000 while Kaplan took a hit to his early big stack.
