ACOP Main Event

Day 6 Started

Jung and Tang Ready to Battle

Welcome back to the 2013 Asia Championship of Poker (ACOP) HK$100,000 Main Event for the resumption of heads-up play between Korea's Sunny Jung and Hong Kong's Devan Tang.

Yesterday an ACOP Main Event Champion was supposed to be crowned, but following fast play on the previous days and a starting 100-big blind average chip stack at the final table, everyone knew that the final day may not be so final by day's end. Although there were some quick eliminations of the short stacks, play slowed down considerably mainly due to the great structure of the event.

After nearly 12 hours of play, the tournament would be halted as both players, staff and media knew that a further six hours of play was a real possibility. Returning today sees Jung and Tang locked in a near even heads-up match with stacks that are 134 and 120-big blinds deep respectively.

The cards are now in the air for the ACOP HK$100,000 Main Event with 30 minutes remaining in this level.

Two Early Walks

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Devan Tang has given up two walks over the first three hands to Sunny Jung.

Maybe just a sign of Tang trying to slowly get back into his groove.

Tang Edges Closer

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Devan Tang opened to 48,000 and Sunny Jung called in the big blind to see a {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{K-Spades} flop.

Tang continued for 50,000 and Jung check-raised to 140,000 with Tang calling as the {A-Diamonds} landed on the turn.

Jung checked and Tang bet out 200,000 was met with an insta-fold from Jung.

Jung Furthers Lead

Sunny Jung (from Day 5)
Sunny Jung (from Day 5)

Sunny Jung raised to 60,000 from the button and Devan Tang called as the dealer dropped a {J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} flop and Jung's 90,000-chip continuation-bet was check-called by Tang.

The turn of the {3-Hearts} saw Jung bet out 140,000 with Tang calling once again before the {10-Clubs} landed on the river and both players checked.

Tang tabled his {J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, but it would Tang's {Q-Spades}{7-Spades} that would see him capture the pot.

Jung Takes Big Lead

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Sunny Jung opened to 60,000 and Devan Tang called to see a {2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop fall with Jung betting out 90,000.

Tang made the call as the {K-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and Jung fired out 150,000 with Tang calling again. The river landed the {4-Hearts} and Jung fired a third time; this time for 225,000 and Tang made the call.

Jung tabled his {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a flush and scooped the massive pot to send him to a two-to-one advantage.
