Okawa Slipping

Level 22 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

From the cutoff, Yifan Zheng raised to 30,000 and both Devan Tang and Yoshitaka Okawa called from the button and small blind.

The flop of {10-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{4-Spades} saw the action check to Tang who bet 40,000 with only Okawa calling as the {5-Clubs} landed on the turn and Tang bet out 80,000 with Okawa calling.

The river of the {J-Clubs} went check, check and Okawa tabled his {A-Spades}{8-Spades}, but it would be Tang's {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} that would see him scoop the pot and move to 1.3 million as Okawa was left with just 180,000.

Straight for Yifan

Level 22 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Yifan Zheng opened to 30,000 from the button and Yoshitaka Okawa three-bet to 90,000 from the big blind.

Zheng called, and when the {J-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop was checked to him, he bet 100,000 which Okawa called.

The {K-Hearts} was checked by both players on the turn as the {Q-Hearts} landed on the river and Okawa bet out 135,000. Zheng called and tabled his {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} which was enough to beat Okawa's {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

Zheng Over 2 Million

Level 22 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Yat Wai Cheng limped in and Yifan Zheng raised to 36,000 with Yoshitaka Okawa, Sunny Jung and Cheng all calling as the flop fell {5-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

Zheng bet out 55,000 and had only one customer in Jung as the {9-Diamonds} on the turn was checked by both players.

The river of the {9-Spades} saw Jung check and Zheng bet out 90,000 which was met with a Jung call. Zheng tabled his {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and Jung mucked his hand as Zheng moved over 2 million.

Slow Going

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Action has slowed considerably the last 20 minutes or so. That's not overly surprising considering the remaining five players are incredibly deep. That said, there have been numerous instances where the players have shown they're not afraid to mix it up. We expect something will give sooner than later.

Walk it Out

Level 22 : 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante

Since the resumption of play, the final table has been predominately raise and take with the occasional three-bet here and there.

For the first time that we've witnessed at the final table, a walk has occurred with Yat Wai Cheng finding one in the big blind.
