Break Time

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

The tournament will now be taking the first break of the day. After three levels of play, there are already 231 entries for Day 1B. That brings the total of the two flights to 453, surpassing last years total of 449 players and there are still six levels left to be played!

Yang Pulls in a Small Pot

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

Fan Zhang opened to 600 from late position, Shinji Kashima called on the button and Jian Yang defended his big blind. The dealer fanned out {2-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades} on the flop, Yang bet 600 and both opponents mucked, sending him the pot.

Yang is a businessman who happens to also be the 2013 Asia Player of the Year. He is sure to be stiff competition for any of his competitors and will be someone to look for as the day unfolds.

Kyogoko Tanks After Zheng Shoves

Kyogoko thought for nearly five minutes before a fellow player at the table called clock. The tournament director gave Kygogoku thirty seconds to act and before the clock hit zero he chucked his hand into the muck, sending the pot to Zheng.

Hong Chips Up Early

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

Nan Hong opened and called a three-bet to 900 by Ruiko Mamiya. Neither player invested any further chips on the {q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs} board and Hong was first to table his cards, revealing the {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. That ended up as the winner, as Mamiya mucked her cards.
