Yen Wins Two Pots in a Row

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The first round went:
Alex Yen was in the small blind when the player in late position raised all in for about 280,000 and Yen called.

Alex Yen: K?K?
Late position player: A?J?

The board came out 9?K?9?2?Q? and Yen won the first round with a full house.

The next hand Yen was on the button and the same player with a very short stack went all in for about 35,000. Yen called quickly.

Middle position player: J?8?
Alex Yen: Q?Q?

This board did not offer any hope to the middle position player who was knocked out when it came 9?3?3?2?Q? and Yen won again with a full house.

The player beside Yen stated, "We call this guy the face melter".
