Biography

Jerry Yang is a poker player of Laotian descent who won the 2007 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event.

In 2011, he authored a book called 'All In'.

Biography

Yang was born in Laos before his family fled to Thailand where they stayed in a refugee camp for four years. From there, his family moved to the United States, landing in California. Yang, who holds a Master��s degree in health psychology, worked as a therapist and social worker prior to winning big in the world��s most coveted poker event. Since then, Jerry has quit his day job, but still continues to help out and give back as much as he can.

Yang at the WSOP

A complete unknown to the poker world, Yang entered a satellite tournament for the WSOP Main Event for $225. After winning the $10,000 seat, Yang parlayed his $225 into a win at the 2007 WSOP Main Event for more than $8 million.

Yang donated a good portion of his winnings to charity. The Make-A-Wish Foundation, Feed the Children, and the Ronald McDonald House were all beneficiaries of Yang��s contributions.
