Fairly sure he had a set of 4s.

I just watched that hand again and based on his speech at the end of the whole deal he mntioned a hand where he had 4s. He says something to the effect of someone had queens and he flopped a set of 4s. He didn't say it was that hand but there was a 4 on the flop on that hand and Childs showed (and folded) his queens. I'm saying 80% thats the hand he mentioned at the end.

This was a hand from earlier in the tournament - not a final table hand. Norman asked him a question about the final table, but he started talking about two hands that he had played earlier in the tournament - it was evident because he said that he was talking about the number of chips he had at the time and it was only 38K or so.

I definitely do not think that Yang had QQ beat in that spot. The flop was 7-high and he could have definitely been being very aggressive with 99-JJ there. He was playing uber-aggressive the entire night and it worked really well for him. Will be interesting to see the hole cards!

CONFIRMED!!! Jerry Yang had pocket jacks this hand.
I heard it from the man himself in his interview w/ Phil Gordon on the ESPN Podcast.

It doesn't seem that unreasonable of a fold based on the previous days' play. Everyone was surprised at how Yang did a complete reversal and turned super aggresive at the final table. If this was one of the first couple hands of the final table he would still have his super tight image.
