In a battle of players from France, Jeremy Jehanne got there with the A♠4♠ when his nut flush draw completed on the J♥10♠8♠7♣2♠. Vincent Chauve had turned a straight with the J♠9♣ and was left with just over one big blind.
Chien Chih Weng pushed all-in for 15,400 on the button and was called by Hyunkyou Park in the big blind.
Chien Chih Weng: K♥5♥
Hyunkyou Park: A♠8♦
The A♥Q♠3♠ flop left Weng on the ropes but she caught a lot of outs on the 2♥ turn. However, the 5♦ river was not among them and Weng bowed out on her second bullet.
A reraise to 11,000 was in front of Cheng Zhang and he then faced the shove by Eric Ceret for 63,500. That sent Zhang into the tank and he then called with the far superior stack.
Eric Ceret: K♠K♥
Cheng Zhang: A♣K♣
The suited ace instantly got there on the A♥7♦6♠ flop, leaving Ceret with a single out. Nothing changed with the 9♥ turn and Q♠ river to vault Zhang into the lead.
Following an open raise, Bien Mai reraised to 8,000 out of the small blind and Quan Qiu in the big blind then four-bet to 40,000 with around 45,000 behind. The initial raiser folded and Mai eyeballed the stack of his table neighbour before pushing all-in.
Qiu sigh-called all-in and instantly mentioned "I don't want to play this hand."
Quan Qiu: K♦K♥
Bien Mai: A♣A♥
The A♦6♣6♥ flop left Qiu with a miracle ahead and he joked "yeah, fuck me" while Mai replied "you still have runner-runner. None of that came on the 4♣ turn and 5♦ river as Mai added even more chips to his growing tower.
Junnie Pamplona four-bet jammed for 36,000 and was snapped off by Guy Taylor to set up the following all-in showdown.
Junnie Pamplona: J♠10♣
Guy Taylor: K♣K♦
The 7♥5♦3♣ flop had Pamplona on the ropes but the 9♦ turn and 8♥ river brought running cards to a straight.
I multi-way action to the ]Jd10c8h] flop, Hun Tae Choi bet 5,000 out of the small blind. Adrien Tantaro jammed for 19,500 from under the gun and Daisuke Fujii tank-folded, as did one further player. Choi called with the marginally covering stack.
Adrien Tantaro: Q♦Q♠
Hun Tae Choi: K♣J♣
The 2♠ turn and 7♥ river kept Tantaro ahead as he doubled. Choi had some 10,000 left and bowed out in another three-way all-in soon after.
Level: 10
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 1,200
Hun Tae Choi looked up the short stack all-in of Chien Chih Weng for 11,100 and had one overcard at his disposal in the following showdown.
Chien Chih Weng: 10♥10♦
Hun Tae Choi: K♣9♥
The 10♣7♠3♣ flop gave Weng top set and Choi needed running cards. One of those came with the 5♣ turn as Choi screamed "backdoooorrrrr" loudly. However, the 7♥ river only improved Weng, who grinned and said "I win round number three".
