Yam Wins a Small One, Yang Flushes Tong
Edward Yam opened the action with a raise to 800 from the cutoff, with the player in the big blind choosing to defend. However, that was as exciting as the action got, with the flop bringing a check from the big blind and a 900 continuation bet from Yam, which was enough to take it down.
Hsiao Yun Yang has continued to climb, and we caught him in action in yet another chunky pot, this time against Bo Wei Tong. Action was picked up on the river with over 12,000 already in the pot and the community cards spread .
Tong (middle position) let out for 3,000 and neighbor Yang reached for raising chips once more, making it 13,000 to go in total. While he did not look thrilled about it, Tong pushed in the call, but could only slide his cards into the muck when Yang rolled over for the nut flush.
