Jerry Yang???   Who is this guy?

unotlikeme · Answer

Played a very solid game when it got to heads up, but before the final table started, I didnt think this guy even sttod a chance.

Really nice of him though to donate 10% of his 8.25 million to three different charities.  Make-A-Wish Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, and Feed the children.  &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Watching the interview with him right now with Norman Chad,  Yang seems like a pretty stand-up guy and a good person.  Very humble winner.  Nice to hear what he plans on doing with his winnings.

i dont think he played well at all, he was a luckbox that got lucky on the last hand and the a 5 kk hand to knock out the south african the was dominated on his j 8 bs. i wish i had his luck.

are you serious, he had his money in good every time except for the j8 hand. Sure, ill agree id never play like that, and his fundamentals werent exactly sound however he wasnt playing THAT poorly.
