Tsai Wins Back-to-Back
Yu You Ci Tsai is the only player we have seen tangle with Hsiao Yun Yang and come out a winner, and he did it twice in a row.
Action was picked up in the first hand with close to 20,000 already in the middle on the river, with the community cards spread .
Tsai, sitting in under-the-gun, was all-in for close to 40,000 and Yang (middle position) was in the tank, eventually choosing to give it up.
The very next hand, the two tangled again, with Cheng Hui Chang caught in the crossfire. It was Yang the man driving the action with an open to 1,000 from middle position, with Chang making the call from one seat over and Tsai coming in from the big blind.

This brought checks from all three players, with the river completing the hand, and the action as there was no more betting. First to act, Tsai turned over for a pair of sixes, and that was enough to claim the pot as both Yang and Chang mucked.
