Yongwei Mo

Yongwei Mo shoved first to act and Calvin Lee also pushed his short stack in from one seat over in the cutoff. Jian Yang in the small blind moved all in over the top and the cards were tabled.

Calvin Lee: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Yongwei Mo: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Jian Yang: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

Yang had the bets of it and little to fear on a board of {10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{7-Spades}, which sent Lee and Mo to the rail, Both stacks were counted and Lee was all in for 640,000, Mo had 650,000 and received ₩54,500,000 ($47,960) for fourth place while Lee takes home ₩43,460,000 ($38,245).

Yan Li Eliminated in 3rd Place (₩66,845,000/$58,824)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Yan Li
Yan Li

Keiji Takahashi raised to 120,000 on the button and Yan Li moved all in for around 600,000, which Takahashi called.

Yan Li: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Keiji Takahashi: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Takahashi improved his outs. Nothing changed with the {k-Diamonds} turn, but the {10-Spades} river indeed gave the Day 1 chip leader trips tens to eliminate Li. With two victories to her name already, Li was on the verge of making history but narrowly missed out on a third title to bow out in third place for ₩66,845,000 ($58,824).

Heads-Up
Heads-Up

On the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{a-Spades} turn, Keiji Takahashi bet 200,000 and Jian Yang called to see the {j-Spades} turn. Takahashi now bet 1,000,000 and Yang folded.

Yang three-bet the next hand and forced a fold before losing his profit by calling a raise to 125,000 and folding the flop.

Yang limped in and Takahashi checked. They checked the {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop and Takahashi check-called a bet of 200,000 on the {7-Spades} turn. On the {5-Spades} river, Takahashi led for 400,000 and Yang called to get shown {9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for a bluff. Yang won the pot with {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and pulled back into his narrow lead.
