Yung Getting It Done

Percy Yung has just managed a double-up over on her action filled table, with her new found chips coming from Fabian Spiedelmann.

Yung woke up with {a-}{a-} and got all her chips in against the {j-}{j-} of Spiedelmann. There was no help for Spiedelmann and no bad beats for Yung as she now sits with a healthy stack

Pan the Man

Jimmy Pan is edging closer to the chip lead, holding almost an elusive seven-figure stack. We caught a recent hand which added to the mammoth tower of chips which Pan sits in front of.

We came to the action on the turn with a board showing {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Spades} and Darren Judges shoving his stack into a pot of around 200,000. Pan only thought for a couple of minutes before making the call.

Pan turned over {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, while Judges held {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}. The meaningless {6-Diamonds} on the river changed nothing and Pan took down the huge pot to move his stack closer to chipleader, David Steicke.

Wei Becomes the Goliath

There is a new king of the castle here at the 2011 APPT Macau Main Event and not only has Victor Wei surpassed Davd Steicke as the leader, but Wei's new found chips have come directly from Steicke's stack.

We caught the action with a flop showing {10-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Spades} and one player checking before Wei also checked to Steicke. At this point Steicke led for 31,500. The other player got out of the way, while Wei check-raised to 64,000. Steicked made the call as the {5-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Wei again checked and Steicke again led, this time for 200,00. Wei then check-raised all in and Steicke looked a little anguished as he contemplated his call. After a few moments Steicke announced the call.

Wei turned over {a-Spades}{7-Spades} confidently and Steicke found that he was drawing dead as he tabled {q-Spades}{9-Spades}. The meaningless river changed nothing and Steicke took the big hit as Wei becomes the new chip leader!

Steicke Getting Smaller

On the {K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop, one player checked before Danny Park also checked. Action then fell on David Steicke and he bet 58,000. The first player folded before Park asked for a count on Steicke's stack. He had a little under 350,000 behind. Park raised all in. Steicke showed the {A-Hearts} and folded.
