Phil Gordon Interview W/Jerry Yang for The Poker Edge Podcast 8/7/07

[BiiiiigChips]

During the interview Phil asked Jerry about the huge hand that occured less than 10 hands in to the FT that involved Jerry and Lee Childs. For those that aren't familiar this is how things went down...


Lee Childs raised to 720K under the gun and Jerry Yang, next to act, popped it to 2.0M. It folded back around to Childs, who made the call. On the 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] flop, Childs led out with a 3.0M bet and Jerry Yang immediately announced that he was all-in, causing Childs to look consternated. After several minutes in the tank, Childs announced that he was folding, as he showed pocket queens.

Phil asked Jerry what he had and Jerry first replied back with the question of "what do you think I had?" Phil answered back that he thought Jerry had the Ace high flush draw. Jerry then answered the original question and said that he had pocket Jacks.
