Yang Waves The White Flag

On a board reading {9-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{8-Clubs} with 1,000 in the pot already, Jerry Yang led out for 700 from the small blind. His lone opponent in early position called.

The turn brought a {6-Diamonds} and Yang led out again - this time for 1,500. His opponent again flatted.

A {K-Hearts} completed the board and Yang decided to slow down and check, prompting a 2,000 bet from his opponent. Yang mucked and slipped to 27,600.
