Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Alexander Puchalski
Alexander Puchalski

Following an open raise to 800, four players called and that led them to the 9♣8♥4♦ flop on which it checked to the initial raiser. A continuation bet of 1,200 followed and Dezhong Li then raised to 5,300. Alexander Puchalski in the small blind check-raised to 10,300 to force out all other players except for Li, who pushed all-in and was quickly called by Puchalski.

Alexander Puchalski: 8♠8♦
Dezhong Li: J♥10♣

Middle set versus the open-ended straight draw had Puchalski ahead, and that remained to be the case throughout the 10♠ turn and A♣ river. Puchalski doubled for 30,800 and Li was left with around 2,000 but already bolted out of the tournament area.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The completed board showed 5♦2♣2♠A♣J♥ and Mr Hendy checked with a pot of around 20,500 brewing until then. Jenam Yu moved all-in for 19,100 in the cutoff and Mr Hendy was sent into the tank. He eventually called and Yu flipped over the A♦2♦ for deuces full of aces, while Mr Hendy sighed and exposed the A♠6♥.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The cards were already on their backs on a K♦9♠2♥ flop on which Hun Tae Choi was all-in for what appeared to be around 13,000. He was looked up by Jacson Feng and the latter had the best of it with the K♠10♣, as Choi only revealed 9♦6♦.

Nothing changed with the 4♠ turn and Q♥ river to send the chips to Feng.

Liu Chips Up Without Showdown

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

On one of the recently opened tables, the flop showed Q♣6♦4♦ and there were around 10,000 in the middle. The small blind check-raised from 3,500 to 6,800 and was then reminded that a min-raise had to be at least 7,000. Tri Cuong Phan tank-folded and briefly exposed his cards, which later caused some discussion at the table.

Yueming Liu on the button, however, didn't fold and instead clicked it back to 23,500. That got rid of the small blind for Liu to chip up.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

In the last hand prior to the break, a pot of some 11,000 emerged to the A♥7♦2♠8♥ turn on which Chang Hyeon Kim bet 2,500. Ashish Ghosh raised to 8,500 for Kim to come along, albeit reluctantly.

The J♠ river completed the board and Kim bet once more, making it 3,500 to go. Ghosh moved all-in for 15,000 and received a snap-call by Kim with the 10♥9♥ for the nuts as Ghosh mucked his 8♦7♠ with a lot of frustration.

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Three ways to the J♠8♠7♠ flop, it checked to Hun Tae Choi and he bet 2,000. Only Dang Duy Thanh check-called and both players then checked the 5♠ on the turn. That led them to the 8♦ on the river on which Thanh checked once more.

Choi now made it 4,000 to go and that won the pot without resistance.

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

When checked to on the A♥Q♦10♠Q♥3♣ river, Selim Souissi bet 2,700 on the button. Mr Hendy in the big blind quickly called and was shown K♦2♦ for a missed gutshot, which Hendy had beat holding the J♠J♣.

"I wanted the king to come," Hendy said with a big grin on the face as he collected the pot.
