The flop came down and Lee took the lead. Ron Kluber was right there to give him a little encouragement as he watched on for Lee to fade the turn and river. After the fell on the turn and on the river, Lee successfully won the hand and doubled up. Kluber gave him a clap and Lee pumped his fists.
The last player of the night has been eliminated. Unfortunately for Fakher Alizai, it was not meant to be on this trip to Seoul. It started when Jhana Hale opened from under the gun. Alizai was on his right in the big blind and the play was folded around to him. Alizai three-bet and then called Hale's shove.

When the board ran out , it was all over for Alizai who was once sitting behind one of the largest stacks in the room. For his effort, Alizai goes home with KRW7,200,000, while 16 players will now be returning tomorrow. Stay tuned for full a wrap, chip counts and a seating draw.
What started as 109 players on Day 2 of the 2012 PokerStars.netAsia Pacific Poker Tour Seoul Main Event has been whittled down to just two tables, with one of the 16 remaining players set to be crowned champion this coming tomorrow. The player in the best position to take it all down is Daisuke Endo as he stormed his way to the head of the chip counts with 650,000.
Endo couldn’t put a foot wrong late into Saturday evening. The biggest hand for Endo came when he took down a three-way all in holding against and .
For only 16 to remain there had to be a lot of casualties throughout the day and it really didn’t take long for the players to start hitting the rail on Day 2. Some of those players who weren’t able to weave their way through the day included Ben McLean, Andrew Scott, Julian Hasse, Sparrow Cheung and Michael Mariakis.
Also never managing any momentum was the last remaining Team PokerStars Pro, Celina Lin. Playing with a short stack for much of the early part of the day, Lin eventually moved her stack all in holding and ran into the of an opponent. No help came for Lin and she was sent out the door.
As play went into the evening stomachs started grumbling as the dinner break was looming. Before dinner was to be had though, the bubble needed to burst and that player ended up being Barry O’Callaghan
With the bubble burst a few more were eliminated with a KRW$5,000,000 min-cash before just 24 players went to a dinner break. With full stomachs and rested minds, the returning players were set to play down to just two tables.
Some of the players who exited just a short while after dinner included Darren Yoon in 21st place and Valeriy Chupin in 20th place. The last player eliminated before the chips were bagged up was Fakher Alizai in 17th place.
Also returning on Sunday with plenty of chips and a chance at taking down the KRW194,000,000 first place prize are Kenneth Wong (527,000), Vincent Rubianes (505,000) and Taewook Kwon (495,000).
