Hand #175 - Jerry Yang has the button, he limps for 600,000, and Tuan Lam checks. The flop comes {9-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, and both players check. The turn card pairs the board with the {6-Spades}, and they check again. The river card is the {K-Hearts}, Lam checks, Yang bets 1 million, and Lam calls.

Yang shows 10-3 for ten high, but Lam shows {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} to win the pot with two pair, eights and sixes.

Jerry Yang has become the first player in the history of the WSOP to hold 100 million in chips. However, he only holds a 4 to 1 lead over Tuan Lam. If Lam can double up twice against Yang, he will take command of the chiplead.

The final two players are reintroduced to the crowd, and everyone is ready to go. Time to shuffle up and deal!

Reminder: In heads-up play, the button has the small blind and acts first before the flop.
