Psycho Killer

All these guys are on to the "under the gun is the new button" theory. UTG easily the most popular steal position thus far. Phil Gordon exposed the theory - dammit Phil. At this rate the UTG steal is going to go out of fashion quicker than squeeze play.
We all put Childs on queens when he had queens. Bag and I thought Yang didn't have that beat. Bag says "ace king of clubs." I say jacks or ace-king. He moved in very quickly which seemed suspicious after his super-deliberate behavior in previous hands. Wolf thought Yang had "an overpair" but didn't care to speculate on whether it was aces or kings.

Gordon is saying some questionable crap like "automatic continuation bet here" and saying how much guys should bet...obviously this sort of depends on what you actually hold, Phil.

I can't believe Yang actually opened a pot for 10x. I really can't believe this. Yang is playing this thing like the $27 nightly on Stars I played yesterday...and it's working. I can't imagine this shit working for the whole final table though, and can't imagine he played this wildly throughout the tournament.

Not sure what Hilm had here when he flatcalled the 10x raise...jacks? Who cold-calls a 10x raise?

Now Yang busts Hilm with AK vs 8d5d on KdJd52. Not a fan of Hilm's play at all here, especially preflop calling a 4x raise in the SB with 85s. Postflop it wasn't too bad but I don't like putting all those chips at risk against a guy who's not gonna fold top pair.

Yang has gone from 8m to 44m with only one showdown. Pretty incredible. I expect this wild play to catch up to him before the end though.
