Posted this in challenge thread, but will repeat here:After busto Yang came down and sat at my 10/20NL table. He posts oop, folds 2 hands, then limps the button. Call call raise to 140ish. Yang repops to 500ish, guy calls. Flop J77, Yang bets $1000, guy calls. turn Q, Yang pushes for $1300ish, and the guy looks upset but calls. River T and Yang flips over AT and the guy goes ballistic and mucks what I assume were nines or eights. Welcome to the table Jerry Yang! :club: He was super nice though and very quiet. I said congrats to him on his win when I left the table and he was very gracious about it.Mark
thanks for the inside scoop.I also found this on ESPN.com about Jerry Yang's whereabouts post-wsop victory

Jennifer Tilly Doubles Through Humberto BrenesMonday, February 25, 2008 08:23 PM PST Jennifer Tilly is all in shortly before the break with A-J against Humberto Brenes' 10-10. Tilly catches an ace on the flop and a jack on the river to win the pot with two pair, doubling up to about 410,000 in chips.Who were you rooting against?
Well, at least this time she didn't check a boat because she thought the other guy had Quads.

Chipleader Phil Ivey Cross the Million-Chip MarkTuesday, February 26, 2008 02:00 PM PST Phil Ivey just took down a six-way pot with a river bet, forcing everyone else to fold. The pot wasn't huge, but it was enough to take Ivey over the million-chip mark, and he now has 1,005,000.Right across the table from him is Phil Hellmuth, who has found new health today with about 730,000 in chips.A few tables over, actress Jennifer Tilly is building on yesterday's success, busting a couple of players on her way to 850,000 in chips.

i forgot who said it but some professional said that ivey is the best tournament player in the world...this is not news, however, this professional also said that phil focuses more on cash games than tournaments and does well in tournaments when there is no cash game going on, like the monte carlo millions he won a few years back.No cash game going on in the Commerce casino right now and he is the chipleader...the guy is amazing

There's something to be said for Hellmuth's tournament results. And he's done it again this week. So I think he's still the best tournament player ever probably. But when Ivey's game is on he is the best overall poker player in the game today.

This makes me really sad. I'm hoping she busts before the TV FT, or I'll off myself in the slowest and most painful way possible.

It's not that she has big boobs.It's the fact that she sucks at poker. Oh, and she checked a full house because she thought Antonius had Quad Kings.
