Lim Extends Lead

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Aaron Lim had the button. He opened to 5,000 and was called by Chane Kampanatsanyakorn from the big blind.

The dealer spread out a flop of {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Kampanatsanyakorn check-called 51,000 to see the {A-Diamonds} turn. Kampanatsanyakorn took lead on fourth street with a bet of 120,000. Lim called.

The {4-Clubs} hit the river and Kampanatsanyakorn bet 220,000. Lim called once more. Kampanatsanyakorn showed {10-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a pair of nines but was ultimately behind Lim's {J-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a pair of jacks. Lim scooped the pot and is now sitting on 1.7 million.

Kampanatsanyakorn Continues To Fall

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Chane Kampanatsanyakorn was in the small blind and completed. Aaron Lim made it 65,000 from the big blind and Kampanatsanyakorn called.

The two saw {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} fall and both checked. They did so once again when the {J-Clubs} hit fourth street and the board completed with the {7-Spades}. Kampanatsanyakorn checked and Lim bet 81,000. Kampanatsanyakorn called but mucked when Lim showed {8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for queens and eights. Lim now has 1.93 million to Kampanatsanyakorn's 755,000.

Nicky Tao Jin Eliminated in 3rd Place (KRW 103,500,000)

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Nicky Tao Jin - 3rd Place
Nicky Tao Jin - 3rd Place

Aaron Lim had the button. He opened to 50,000 only to have Nicky Tao Jin three-bet to 115,000 from the small blind.

Action back back to Lim who four-bet to 255,000. Jin wasted little time five-betting to 400,000. Lim announced a six-bet all in and Jin heaved a sigh before tossing out a single chip, signifying a call.

Jin: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Lim: {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades}

Jin was way out in front but that all changed as the flop fell {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. The {6-Diamonds} hit the turn and suddenly Jin needed to catch a ten to make a set and the best hand. It was not so, however, as the {3-Spades} fell down and Jin became the third place finisher. He'll take home KRW 103,500,000 for his efforts.

Chane Kampanatsanyakorn Doubles

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

On the first hand of heads-up play, Chane Kampanatsanyakorn limped on the button. Aaron Lim checked his option and the flop fell {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}.

Lim checked to Kampanatsanyakorn who bet 60,000. A check-raise to 140,000 is what came next from Lim and after a few moments, Kampanatsanyakorn shoved for 638,000. Lim nodded his head and called.

Kampanatsanyakorn: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}
Lim: {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}

Kampanatsanyakorn found a little help from the {6-Clubs} turn, providing additional chop outs. However, he caught one of his gin cards as the {A-Clubs} river gave him the pot.
