Yao Back Above Starting Stack
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
With about 10,000 already in the pot, the rest of Franklin Yao's stack went into the middle on a flop of A♦8♦Q♦. Yao, who had 11,700 behind after the flop, was all in and at risk.
Franklin Yao: Q♠Q♥ 
Opponent: A♥K♥
The turn landed the 4♣, locking up the win for Yao. The meaningless 2♣ rolled off on the river and Yao secured the double up.
