Default Re: WSOP on ESPN thread (10/9 - ME Final Table)

I really don't get some of you guys...Yang was just one race away from being the low stack at four-handed, he made a horrible read against Childs and should have been gone first, he made terrible river bluffs, he was on a downward spiral from five to four handed.........etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.....

Yet he crushed/dominated/raped the table?????? Are you sure you even watched the entire ppv, or dreamed up your own version? At any given point he was just two hands away from being knocked out. Just any top pair against a better hand would have done post-flop, or someone picking up a dominating hand pre-flop against him (at worst). Guess what, it didn't happen...it ALMOST did many many times, but it ultimately didn't. And not to mention he was one race away from being only 3:2 chip leader at heads up...no way would Lam have stuffed that one up at that point against this easily trapped player.

Did he utilize the correct strategy for someone with his ability? Of course he did. Preflop and c-bets that is. Anything after that was just uncanny that he didn't once get trapped for the entire ft.
