JERRY YANG WINS

I was tired, and I was only watching
it on tv from my couch !!

Nearly 16 hours after his dominating
final table performance began,
Jerry Yang from Temecula, CA
beat Tuan Lam from Canada to
capture the 2007 World Series of
Poker Main Event Championship.

Yang, who qualified for the Main Event
in a live $225 satellite at the Pechanga
casino, picked up the bracelet, a Corum

watch, and $8.25 million in prize money.

Tuan Lam played patiently and always
seemed to be card dead or waiting
for that one big opportunity to double
up through Yang. It will be interesting
to see the edited down version of the
final table and see if he really was
card dead or playing overly tight.
