We arrived at the table with the board showing 
. Adrain Attenborough had just moved all in and had his opponent’s stack of just over 12,000 in chips covered.
A minute passed before the bet was called. Attenborough then tabled his 
for two pair which was enough to take down the pot as his opponent mucked his hand.
Attenborough moves up to 36,000 in chips following the hand.

Late registration for the first starting day has closed and 116 total players decided to play. This numbers compares pretty well with the previous two years when 118 and 122 players respectively entered on Day 1a.
Day 1b looks to be a little bit bigger than today, and the total numbers of players looks to be around the same as in the previous editions of APPT Seoul.
Yuguang Li moved all in for his remaining 6,750 from the small blind after the dealer produced the 
on the turn on a 
{ah] board.
His opponent thought about his decision for a minute before making the call only to realise he was behind with his 
against Li’s .
The river brought the 
improving Li’s hand to a straight as he scooped in the pot to see his move back up to 21,500 in chips.

We picked up the action in a pot that spiralled out of control pretty quickly when the flop showed 
. Vladimir Demenkov bet 1,900 and Katsuki Yamashita check-raised it up to 4,900.
Demenkov made the call and on the turn the 
hit. Yamashita bet out 5,000 and Demenkov raised it up to 20,000 almost immediately.
Yamashita tanked for a bit but eventually he folded his cards giving Demenkov this big pot.
