Your right. If I only look at wiki once in a while.

Incredible growth, I will say. Funny, I know nothing at all about Jerry Yang.

Well, I just learned his strategy:

I study my opponents very carefully, and when I sensed something, when I sensed some weakness, I took a chance. Even if I had nothing, I decided to raise, reraise, push all-in or make a call....

That quote just changed my game 4-ever. Even if I have nothing while sitting at a full ring table, I should make that call. Sweet.

Congratulations to a newly minted pro:

Yang holds a Master's degree in health psychology from Loma Linda University and worked as a therapist and social worker. He quit his job after winning the World Series. [citation needed] He is married and has six children.

Wow. He is really going live in California and support six children on a 6 mil win after giving half of it to charity and taxes?

gl, Bro.

I don't think I could support myself for the rest of my life on 3 mil in California if I crashed on someone's couch.
