Yin Applies The Pressure On The Bubble

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

On a flop of {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} Shen Ming Yin checked his option from middle position. His opponent in the hand was Florencio Campomanes, who bet out 18,500 from the button. Yin then slid a raise to 48,500 before Campomanes came over the top almost instantly to 96,000. Yin didn't take long to move all in for around 150,000 in chips which sent Campomanes into the tank.

Campomanes ended up making the fold and Yin replied by tabling his {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a flush and straight draw.

Chan Eliminated Just Before Break; Remaining 60 On The Bubble

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Justin Pak Kwan Chan

The action started with the player in the hijack raising to 7,000. Huidong Gu was in the cut off and bumped it up to 14,000 before the decision fell on Justin Chan on the big blind. He moved all in for his remaining 33,000 which was enough to scare off the original raiser. But not Gu who made the quick call.

Chan: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Gu: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

Chan was in great shape to double up until the board ran out {10-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. Gu had spiked an ace on the flop to take down the pot leaving the tournament with one elimination from the money.

Lee Versus Yin

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Daniel Lee opened with a raise from the button and called the three-bet to 25,000 by Shen Ming Yin to see a flop of {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Yin continued for 35,000 and was called before checking the {3-Hearts} on the turn. Lee fired 60,000 and enforced a fold.

One hand later, Pu Liu three-bet a raise and flashed the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} after everyone including the initial raiser had folded.

Liu Dashes Out Bad Beat

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

After a raise to 7,500, Pu Liu flat-called from one seat over and an all in of a short stack for 47,500 followed. The initial raiser mucked his cards but Liu made the call after giving it a lot of thought. He immediately regretted the decision as soon as he spotted the {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} of the player at risk and tabled {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}.

On the {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop the emotions changed within a heartbeat and the rest of the board ran out safely with the {8-Spades} turn and {Q-Diamonds} river.

62 players left, three off the money.

O’Dwyer Doubles

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Steve O'Dwyer
Steve O'Dwyer

With the pot over 25,000 and the flop reading {q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{k-Spades}, both Steve O’Dwyer and Yoshiro Nagata checked the action over to the player on the button. He bet out 9,000 and was called by O’Dwyer before Nagata opted to bump it up to 18,000 in chips. The original raiser thought for a minute before folding his hand then O’Dwyer called.

The {4-Clubs} fell on the turn and O’Dwyer checked. Nagata instantly reached for chips and splashed out a tower of 5,000-denomination chips totalling 70,000. O’Dwyer looked over at the bet before moving all in for 88,000. Nagata wasn't impressed but made the additional call for 18,000 before both players tabled their cards.

O’Dwyer: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Nagata: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

O’Dwyer had turned the nut flush and ended up raking in the pot after the {6-Clubs} completed the board. With that pot O’Dwyer moves up to 229,500 in chips. Nagata drops down to 45,000.

Seven Tables Remain

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Another table had to be broken up as chip leader XiaoHua Fu eliminated the player to his left in a preflop all in situation. The player at risk held {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and the Fu tabled pocket kings. There was no surprise on the board and the field has been reduced to 63, making for seven tables of nine players each.

Chan Puts Pressure on Kaplan

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Joining the action on the {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} turn, Wai Leong Chan fired a bet of 17,500 from the under-the-gun position. Jordan Kaplan was in late position and made the call before the {4-Clubs} fell on the river. This time the bet was worth hefty 62,500 and Kaplan got out of the way.

Luo Rising

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Wenxiong Luo
Wenxiong Luo

We arrived at the table to see the player in middle position raising to 6,000. He was called by the player on the button before Wenxiong Luo bumped it up to 13,000 form the big blind. Both his opponents called and the three watched the flop come down {2-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}.

Luo reached for his chips and bet out 18,000. Only the player in middle position called before both opted to check the {2-Spades} on the turn. The river brought the {3-Spades} and Luo thought for a minute before splashing out 31,000 in chips. His opponent took a minute before reluctantly making the call.

Luo the rolled over his {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} for queens up which was enough to take down the pot as his opponent mucked his hand.
