Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

The 23 players have returned from their longer break and are ready to get back into action. The blinds will continue at 3,000/6,000 with a 1,000 ante.

Mick Woo Eliminated in 23rd Place (KRW 5,680,000)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Mick Woo
Mick Woo

It wasn't going to take long for two monster stacks to clash.

The action started when the option folded to Mike Woo on the button. He raised it up to 14,000 and was called by Jason Mo in the big blind.

The flop came down {2-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and both players checked. When the {a-Diamonds} fell on the turn Mo checked. Woo reached for his chips and bet out 13,000. Mo thought for a moment before bumping it up to 40,000. Woo eyed off his opponent before making the call.

After the dealer produced the {3-Spades} on the river Mo sat motionless for a minute before sliding out a bet totalling 105,000 in chips. He then watched as Woo announced all in for 265,000 in chips.

“I have the second nuts,” said Mo, assessing the situation.

“This is brutal,” he added.

“I think you have the king-eight of diamonds,” he finished with.

Mo eventually talked himself into calling with an additional 24,000 in his stack and was relieved when Woo tabled his {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for just a pair. Mo then rolled over his {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush and took down the massive pot.

Change of Plans as the High Roller Draws a Big Crowd

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

The Main Event was scheduled to play 12 levels today, but due to the big turnout in the High Roller event play will be cut short. We are currently in the 9th level of play, and there will be just one more level after this one.

The High Roller currently has 36 players seated and six players on the alternate list with entries and re-entries possible for the rest of the day. The High Roller is currently in the second level, played started with 20,000 chips and the blinds are 50/100. The Main Event tables will make place for the High Roller, as the poker room at the Walker Hill casino is absolutely jam packed with both tournament and cash game action.

The High Roller has a buy in of 6 million KRW (US $5,485) and players are allowed to do one re-entry. Late registration closes before the start of Day 2, and players opting to do so will start with 25 big blinds.

Taewook Kwon Eliminated in 20th Place (KRW 6,310,000)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

The action folded around to Taewook Kwon on the button who moved all in for his last 20,000 in chips. When the decision fell on Jason Mo in the big blind he made the call and both players tabled their cards.

Mo: {q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Kwon: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Kwon was in high spirits when the dealer produced the {10-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} giving him top pair. But how quickly things can change as the {q-Clubs} spiked on the turn giving Mo trip queens. The {3-Spades} on the river just added to the pain as Kwon was sent to the rail.

Yu Kurita Eliminated in 19th Place (KRW 6,310,000)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Yu Kurita
Yu Kurita

Celina Lin kicked things off with a raise to 13,000 from under the gun. Yu Kurita then moved all in for 46,000 from the cut off before the decision fell on Genki Nakano in the big blind. He agonised over his decision for a moment before finally opting to fold. Lin then snap called.

Lin: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Kurita: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Kurita watched on as the dealer showed the {10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} flop giving her the lead with top pair. That was short lived however as the {a-Hearts} on the turn sent Lin to the lead with the broadway staright. There would be no chop as the {a-Clubs} on the river completed the board guaranteeing Lin the pot.
