It's a rarity when we get to see the former 2007 Main Event Champion Jerry Yang playing in any event at the Rio, especially when it's his first WSOP cash since 2015. Unfortunately, shortly after returning to his table, the former Main Event Champion was gone.
Yang has been very quiet since winning his title along with his $8,250,000 first place money, but having arrived to play one tournament, maybe we'll see him at the felt again later on in this 2019 World Series of Poker.
