Bikbulatov and Ichinose Eliminated

We just saw three players move all in before the flop. Kosei Ichinose was the first, moving all in for 180,000 from middle position, before Rauf Bikbulatov followed suit for his last 45,000. Hao Tian wanted to join the party, and called for his last 134,000, as all three players tabled their cards.

Tian:
Ichinose:
Bikbulatov:

Ichinose had both players covered, but the flop of only favoured the man already holding a pair. The missed everyone, as the completed the board. Tian jumped out of his chair, delighted with his win, as Bikbulatov made his way out of the area.

Two hands later, Alexandre Chieng opened to 45,000 from under the gun, as the table folded around to Ichinose on the big blind. He committed his last 40,000 in chips, and was in front with his against when the cards were shown.
