Yong Jumps Up, Morgan Falls Down
Two big hands just made an end to John Morgan's tournament as he ran a huge semi bluff on Richard Yong. Yong was not going anywhere with his trips, and he's now one of the big stacks.
The flop read 
when Yong bet 300,000. Morgan decided to raise it up to 900,000, but that wasn't enough for Yong who made it 1.9 million. Morgan didn't seem impressed, he moved all in, and Yong called his remaining chips off.

. Morgan could still win this big pot with a seven, queen or a club, but the river was the 
giving Yong a full house.
On the next hand Yong raised it up to 130,000, and John Morgan moved all in for 650,000 from the hijack. Ilya Bulychev was in the cutoff and he moved all in as well. Yong folded and we got see another heads-up showdown.
