Yang Sends One Home

2007 World Series of Poker Main-Event winner Jerry Yang opened to 1,350 from the button and was shoved on for 10,000 from the player in the big blind. Yang called and hands were revealed.

Yang: {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades} leaving Yang with trips, which was good enough to send his opponent to the rail.

Yang currently has 42,000.
