Yang Holds On for Now
Level 18
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Chongxian Yang was down to just 450,000 after doubling up Dominykas Mikolaitis, and looked like he would be the player to exit on the final table bubble.
He folded from under the gun on the next deal, but was fortunate to recieve a walk when he was in the big blind. He gave up his small blind the hand after but when he was on the button, he put in his stack of 450,000.
Mikolaitis snapped from the big blind and the cards were tabled.
Chongxian Yang: A♥8♠
Dominykas Mikolaitis: 9♥9♣
Yang immediately found his three-outer, pairing his ace on the A♣6♥2♣ flop and held on to double after the J♥3♥ completed the board.
