He Qualified for $200…Then DESTROYED the Pros for Millions!

Chip over to bully and a lot of luck. Nice win jerry

Father showed him Glory and Miracles...❤

if you have a story its more likely for them to let those people win becouse they need a show..

2007 was the year that fully answered the question : "Can a dumb-ass player win a WSOP bracelet by simply getting piss lucky, regardless of how many bad plays he makes?"

The answer was clearly "YES", and then that same Goof player quickly proceeded to donk-off all the proceeds of that donk win ! Forest Gump was correct.... "Stupid IS as Stupid DOES."

jerry praying left and right and he did it lol

That was one of my favourite WSOP to watch back in the day...

He won because he played opposite to what everyone else was doing and it paid off...

How does he walk around with those massive balls. Say what you will about his skill! Bet you won’t see any pros eliminate everyone on the final table like Jerry!

Amazing hands!

He knock out everyone wow!

He came, he saw, he conquered. Took the trophy home and never looked back. What a back story lol

People say skill....I say luck...it's all about puking your opponent

Headlines "Refugees take our Poker Pro jobs"

Everyone say it's luck, which is true and not, even with pure luck, it's still a very very low chance of even coming top 20th for this tournament.

he got balls and bluff all the way to a become a champion ..... Beat all the mother Fkers in Vegas in 2006 WSP

Jerry yang a one hit wonder never to be seen again 😊

JERRY YANG!!

This guy had the best poker luck ever.

That is alot of luck there

got lucky.. was on a crazy heater

Pocket 8's struck twice.

I think this is the hand 😂every hand was the hand 😂😂😂😂

MoneyMaker showed the world you do not have to be a pro and only paid $39 to win the Main Event.

Not really...Jerry was just average poker player. I know him and I played with him. He's nothing special players like them high level poker players but when he won ,it gives us average poker players that we know that we have chance win it too !

👍

just got luck lol

This card shit is all luck...😆😅

THATS CRAZYYYYY LOL

Hahaha 😆

EMOOOOTIIONAAAAAAL DAMAGGEEEEE

Just luck!

This dude is Hmong just like Brenda Song and Suni Lee.

Once he started calling on the powers of his ancestors the other dude was TOAST

When he called for more clubs i said right away what if its an 8 of clubs lol

Jang look like Chang in hangover movie

How much did Jerry take home?

Incredible! 2 refugees! 👏👏👏

Sometimes pocker is about reading someone face, how donyou read them if they wear sunglasses? Should sunglasses be ban?

Wow Jerry Yang is like a juggernaut. Can't be stopped during this WSOP tournament. Hmoob pride4lyfe!

Jerry Yang is actually a Hmong Refugee even though he's Asian.

And you all just had to be there in 2007. I remember WSOP became so popular by the 2000s that it was on cable TV every day so one day my buddies and I were just hanging out, we tuned in to watch it. Then we saw Jerry Yang who was playing and all thought that he was likely Chinese or Korean until the casters mentioned his Hmong background. After that, we watch his tables as much as we can because it was the first time we have ever seen a Hmong player in a big WSOP league.

We did missed some hours because the games are just too long after 3 hours of watching. But we did get to see his finale table and when he eliminated Lam to win it all. It was a sight to be proud of and for anyone who is Hmong, this was another huge milestone for the Hmong community.

This my cousin!!!

Legend 🐐

As an american with immigrant family from the neighboring SEA countries, I’m rooting for this guy. Those were extremely hard times back then in the SEA region

He's Hmong

Both refugees from the Vietnam war that spilled into Laos and Cambodia, because USA wanted to fight a war defensively, while letting the enemy rearm and supplied by USSR. USA afraid to take a the war to the ports of north Vietnam. Both poker players family fled because communist dictators wanted a socialist utopia by killing business owners, teachers, leaders, because there is no leaders in a society where everyone is equal.

Just proves it's mostly luck. Low skill, high luck game.

bro, its just pure luck lmao

Jerry is not a good player

Witnessed my buddy knock him off the poker table at club one one time..he played aggressive but without luck its just bluff.

This is how the OG Hmongs play cards....the bully pushing everyone around, and they keep falling to the bully. Jerry is an awesome guy, I've met him on some real estate deals and he's really nice guy.
