Grimes Takes from Yang

Level 1 : 75/150, 0 ante

2007 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion Jerry Yang tangled in a pot with Chadwick Grimes and the action was picked up on the {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} turn. Grimes checked out of the big blind and Yang bet 750 from the button. Grimes called. The {K-Clubs} on the river completed the board and Grimes checked again.

Yang bet 2,250 and Grimes carefully checked his stack before tossing the chips for a call. Yang nodded and tapped the table, which prompted Grimes to table his {A-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a pair of aces. Yang mucked and dropped just below starting stack.
