Outer Table: Jerry Yang Doubles Through Alex Kravchenko

Action folds around to Jerry Yang on the button. He moves all in for 2,700,000. Alex Kravchenko, playing from the big blind, thinks for a bit, then finally calls. The players show...

Yang: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Kravchenko: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

The board fills out {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{A-Hearts} and Yang's pair of eights is best. He doubles up to 5,700,000 and leaves Kravchenko on a short stack of about 1,300,000.
