Then immediately doubled same guy. He 4 bet all in a6 > kk. Then lost tt to same guys ak. Out in 5th. #supersigh #BWO2012
 

******************************
Translation: England hit an ace with A 6 against Young's pocket kings for a 1 million chip pot. Young then busts with pocket 10s against England's AK when an ace hits the river.

Young has been playing poker professionally for one year after graduating with a degree in Actuarial Science.  Translation: He's good with stats that would be helpful to insurance companies, but right now it's helping his poker game.

Look for Young in the $1k 6-max Saturday and says he's prepared to fire two bullets in the Championship event.
