Double-Figures

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

With a few minutes left before the break, the remaining player's in today's field has dropped below the 100-mark. Barring any bust-outs, 99 will be heading for a much needed break.

Zalac with the Double KO

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Ivan Zalac recently moved to a new table. In his first hand he found himself taking out two opponents, as he rockets up the chip counts.

The action started with a player moving all-in, before Vincent Rubianes did the same for a little more. Zalac then shoved over the top as everyone else got out of the way.

It was the classic {Q-}{Q-} vs. {k-}{k-} vs. {a-}{a-} scenario. Zalac’s pocket aces were able to hold, as he sent two players to the rail. He now sits on 85,000 in chips.

Wong Gets Wu

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Nick Wong opened the pot with a bet of 1,325, and was called by both blinds, one of which was Raymond Wu. The flop came down {4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and all three players checked. When the {A-Clubs} fell on the turn, both blinds checked to Wong, who bet out 2,650. Only Wu made the call as the {J-Diamonds} completed the board. Both players checked as Wong tabled his {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}, forcing Wu to muck his hand.

“I thought you might’ve rivered ace-jack,” said Wong, not firing a river bet.

Chan Doubles Short-Stack

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

The action folded around to Justin Chan on the button who bet out 1,250. The player in the small blind then moved all-in for his last 5,000, and when the big blind folded his hand, Chan made the call.

Chan: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Board: {6-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

Chan was out-flopped by his opponent, but picked up extra outs on the turn to also make a flush. The river was no help as he drops down to 11,000 in chips.

Sim Busts

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

We arrived at the table to see Akira Ohyama open to 1,200 from under the gun, before Jae Kyung Sim moved all-in for his last 4,625 in chips. Ohyama made the quick call, and both players tabled their cards.

Ohyama: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Sim: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{K-Spades}{8-Clubs} to see Ohyama’s queens hold, sending him up to 45,000 in chips. Unfortunately for Sim, his day has come to an end, as his hopes of making it back-to-back titles on the tour, come to an end.

Sim and his Short-Stack

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

The hand started with the player under the gun opening to 800 and getting called by the player in the hijack, before Jae Kyung Sim raised to 2,500 from the button. The original raiser then quickly bumped it up to 4,500, forcing a fold from the player in between. Sim made the call, and both watched, as the board came down {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}. A quick bet of 7,000 was enough to see Sim’s cards fly into the muck, as he sits behind a stack of 8,000 in chips.

Wang Makes the Call

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

With the board reading {8-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, the player in the hijack checked over to Ted Wang on the button, who made it 1,900. He was snap-called as the {2-Diamonds} completed the board. Another check sent Wang into the tank for over a minute, before he threw out a bet of 2,600. Almost instantly, his opponent came back over the top, raising to 5,700.

As Wang was contemplating his next move, two players at the table began talking amongst themselves, putting Wang off, as he politely signalled to them that this was a big decision, and that they stay quiet during the hand.

He eventually made the call, as his opponent tabled {9-Spades}{10-Clubs} for ten-high, as Wang tabled his {a-Diamonds}{A-Spades}.

Wang looked relieved after the hand, as he cracked a smile, looking a little more relaxed then during the hand.

Wu Loses a Few

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

The hand started with Raymond Wu opening to 800 from under the gun, and finding a call from the player to his immediate left as well as Nicky Wong on the button. The small blind then looked down at his cards and moved all in, for his remaining 11,000 in chips. Wu made the call, as the next player went into the tank. He eventually mucked his hand, as did Wong, before the other two players tabled their cards.

Wu: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Spades}{J-Spades} to see Wu’s opponent hit the much needed {10-Spades} on the turn to keep him in the tournament.
