Ye Wang Crushing

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

China's Ye Wang has by far the biggest stack in the event so far, with 270,000 in chips. A big part of it came from Xinglong Huang, who was the other big stack of the event, up until before the last break.

Ye Wang took at least two big pots from Huang, one when Huang re-raised to 47,500 chips preflop, and folded to Wang's shove. A couple hands later, he was seen calling and mucking in the river, when Wang opened a straight.

Obara Misses Draw

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Jun Obara was left with 28,000 chips after a big pot he played with an all in the flop.

When we reached the table, the board was reading {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts} and there's been an all in and a call with Obara holding {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and his opponent {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

The turn end it all with the {10-Clubs}, and the river gave a flush to Obara with the {4-Hearts} but it was a formality in this specific hand.
