Feng Misstep Results in Bust; Chen Takes Lead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Chuanshu Chen takes the chip lead

An absolutely monster pot went down between Chuanshu Chen and Day 1B frontrunner Shun Yan Feng that left the latter on life support and shot the former to the top of the counts.

It was Feng who was the architect of his own demise after opening to 25,000 from under-the-gun and getting re-raised by Chen one seat over. Feng made the call to take the action to a flop of {5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} and this is where the fireworks went off.

Feng checked and Chen led out for 125,000 and the action was back on Feng, who thought it over for 30-seconds or so before pulling the trigger and moving all-in for 558,000. Chen rocked back in his seat and took off his sunglasses, before grilling Feng on what sort of hand he had. This was all conducted in Mandarin, but we got the gist of it. It took an extremely long time for Chen to make a decision and play halted on two of the other three tables as the other players wandered over to watch the gigantic pot play out.

Chen must have picked up a tell, or some other information as he abruptly made up his mind and slammed down the call, and a reluctant Feng had to turn his hand over. Feng had made a ballsy semi-bluff with {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} but Chen had one of his outs with {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for top, top. Chen gave an ecstatic cry of 'Yes!' when the {4-Clubs} river bricked out and Feng was left with a 20,000 bowl of rice. Chen stacked up to 1.25-million to seize the chip lead.

Feng was out the next hand, with the majority of his chips in from the big blind. While he had {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} with which to make a stand, this was outdrawn by the {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} of Yuefeng Pan, who was the man driving the action after raising the cutoff pre-flop. Feng's final board ran out {4-Spades}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} with Pan pairing his jack on the river to thin the field by one.
