The final hand of the 2007 WSOP was a classic if ever there was one.

With Jerry Yang constantly putting the pressure on Tuan Lam, Lam was looking for two good cards that he could go all-in with. He was dealt Ace-Queen, and after Yang raised pre-flop to 1.9 million, he pushed in his stack (23 million). Once again, Yang had a hand to call with and flipped over his pocket eights. The flop was Q, 9, 5 and Lam looked set to double through. That would have still left Yang with over 80 million.

But instead of that happening the turn card was a 7, giving Yang more outs to win the hand. Yang still needed an 8 or a 6 to win the championship, and as many expected, he hit his 6 for the win and the championship.

And let’s not forget the $8 million.
