A huge hand took place in Table 3, with all the action and the drama someone can expect in the last three tables of a big event such as APPT National. It all started with Yang Li opening to 60,000 from under-the-gun, while Qi Xu shoved for 255,000 on the very next position.
Next to act was Hoai Linh Tran, and he called the shove, with the action folding to Shintaro Nozawa on the button. He was considering his options, and while he was still tanking, the initial raiser left his seat, going near the bar, looking like he wanted to order something. Lihn Tran is the one who noted to the dealer that since he left his seat, his hand must be dead. The dealer asked for the floor manager to come, who ruled out that his hand is dead, taking Li's cards to the muck.
Nozawa said that since the initial raiser is out of the way, then he is all in, putting 630,000 chips in the middle. There was a chatter in the table regarding how this move by the initial raiser changed the whole action, but Lihn Tran quickly called Nozawa's all in to put two players at risk, and an end to all discussions, since the most important thing was the actual hand at the moment.
The three players opened their cards:
Xu: 
Linh Tran: 
Nozawa: 
The flop was as interesting as the rest of the hand, with the 
giving set to Tran and Nozawa, and a gutshot to Xu.
The 
brought celebrations for Xu, who now was a big favorite to win the pot, and the 
on the river kept her safe from full houses, tripling up her stack. The victim of the hand was Nozawa who busted, with Tran winning the side pot.

The board until the turn was really bad for Hilberts, with the
