Yang Hits a Two-Outer on the River

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

There was a raise in early position and Jason DeWitt three-bet to 20,000 in the hijack. Thao Yang just called from the cutoff and Daniel Jones shipped all in for a little over 100,000 in the small blind. The action folded back to Yang who asked for a count before calling off his last 72,000 chips.

Thao Yang: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Daniel Jones: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Jones held the superior pocket pair and things were looking clean on the {k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} runout. However, the {10-Clubs} on the river gave Yang a set of tens and Jones was left with around 10 big blinds.

Michael Gathy
Michael Gathy

On March 2, a day after he finished in third place for $54,193 in the $3,000 NLH 6-Max $200K GTD event, Belgium’s Michael Gathy bested a 148-entry field to win the $3,000 NLH Progressive Bounty, which more than doubled its $200K guarantee with a $407,000 prize pool.

The top 16 finishers made the money including Aaron Duczak (10th - $6,138), Martin Jacobson (11th - $6,138), Dylan Linde (12th - $5,374), Tongguang Sun (13th - $5,374), Nicholas Bond (14th - $4,760), Katie Lindsay (15th - $2,380), and Ryan Leng (16th - $2,380).

Among those at the final table were Bin Weng (9th - $7,081), Ethan “Rampage” Yau (7th - $9,842), and Alex Foxen (4th - $20,202). After Leonard August bowed out in third place for $29,526, the final two players saw each lock up $62,368, but the winner would get the hefty PKO bounty. Ryan McAllister took second place while Gathy took first and the trophy.
