Ronald Chun Long Yu had squeezed to 20,000 preflop and got rid of one opponent but his other rival went along to see a flop of 
. Yu continued for 21,000 and his opponent shoved for another 58,000 on top. Figuring that his eight was good most of the time and considering the pot odds, Yu made the call with

The opponent turned over 
for the gotshut and indeed got there with the perfect 
turn card. Only a ten could avoid a huge setback for Yu, but the

Zhenru Xie and Geng Liu saw a heads-up flop of 
and a raising war broke out. Xie put his opponent to the test and moved all in with the superior stack. It took at least three minutes for Liu to make up his mind and he shook his head in disgust after calling and seeing the hand of his opponent.
Liu: 
Xie: 
Neither the 
turn nor the 
river provided any help and Xie appears to be up to half a million in chips, though he is not done stacking yet.

Ho Cheng:
Ye:
After the board ran out 
, the stacks were counted and Ho Cheng had exactly 500 chips more than his opponent. With one ante left heading into the last hand of the day, he was forced all in and Ke Jing Li three-bet from 12,000 to 29,000 to pick up one caller.
On the flop, Li's continuation bet enforced a fold and he flipped over the 
. Ho Cheng needed a deuce with as hole cards, even a four would have helped as the appeared on the turn. The 
river sent him to the rail in the very last hand of Day 2 and the Canadian headed to the payout desk.
