Doddaiavar Among the Chip Leaders

Level 9 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Christopher Park had boosted his stack without showdown when he raised a king-high river while facing a bet of 100,000 by Kazuhiko Yotsushika and forced a fold. Yasreel Praveen Doddaiavar has climbed to a big stack as well and both Park and Doddaiavar are likely the first contenders to amass more than one million in chips.

Phachara Wongwichit has re-entered and Tian Jin also joined the action in the final level of the night.
