Ye "yuan365" Yuan Looking For Another Big Summer of Online Fun

Level 10 : 400/800, 80 ante
Ye Yuan
Ye Yuan

Ye "yuan365" Yuan, also known as Tony Yuan, has a tiny amount of cashes on his Hendon Mob profile, with just $6,774 in career tournament earnings outside of one particularly big outlier. Yuan, a Ph.D Candidate of Mathematics and Probability at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, overcame the odds and made the final table of the 2020 WSOP $10,000 Main Event, after pushing through a field of 705 entrants.

“I still can’t believe it." Yuan told PokerNews about his run to the final table. "I don’t know how I made it, but someone I did. I was quite lucky to have some big hands. I won a coinflip when short-stacked with pocket nines against my opponent’s ace-jack offsuit." Yuan also was confident in the transition to the live final table, as opposed to online, saying, "I’m a live guy. I think my live play is better than my online play. I can read people.”

Yuan finally succumbed in fifth-place, losing a flip with ace-ten to the pocket fours of Joseph Hebert, but the $286,963 payday certainly helped put a big dent in his college tuition. Now, with another summer of online events waiting, Yuan will be looking to make another deep today after notching two final tables already this series.

Gifford Tries Again

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Krista "Pollux" Gifford min-raised from middle position and then called the 4,725 three-bet Shaun "Ddtgg" Deeb made from the cutoff.

The {k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop saw Gifford check-jam for 7,360 after Deeb continued for 1,000 and Deeb quickly called.

Shaun "Ddtgg" Deeb: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Krista "Pollux" Gifford: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Gifford was behind after Deeb paired his king on the flop but the {6-Hearts} turn did give her more outs with a gutshot straight.

Gifford needed a five or three to secured her double but the {q-Clubs} appeared on the river and she re-entered the tournament.
