Ye "yuan365" Yuan, also known as Tony Yuan, has a tiny amount of cashes on his Hendon Mob profile, with just $6,774 in career tournament earnings outside of one particularly big outlier. Yuan, a Ph.D Candidate of Mathematics and Probability at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, overcame the odds and made the final table of the 2020 WSOP $10,000 Main Event, after pushing through a field of 705 entrants.
“I still can’t believe it." Yuan told PokerNews about his run to the final table. "I don’t know how I made it, but someone I did. I was quite lucky to have some big hands. I won a coinflip when short-stacked with pocket nines against my opponent’s ace-jack offsuit." Yuan also was confident in the transition to the live final table, as opposed to online, saying, "I’m a live guy. I think my live play is better than my online play. I can read people.”
Yuan finally succumbed in fifth-place, losing a flip with ace-ten to the pocket fours of Joseph Hebert, but the $286,963 payday certainly helped put a big dent in his college tuition. Now, with another summer of online events waiting, Yuan will be looking to make another deep today after notching two final tables already this series.

A series of preflop raises saw Daniel "DNegs" Negreanu four-bet jam 16,122 from the cutoff and Bryan "Pellepelle" Piccioli called from the small blind.
Bryan "Pellepelle" Piccioli: 
Daniel "DNegs" Negreanu: 
Negreanu was way behind needing help and the 
flop came paired bringing possible chop outs.
The 
turn wasn't a bad sight for Negreanu as it gave him the nut flush draw but the 
river was even better as it paired his eight and secured his double-up.
