With plenty of chips into the middle to the J♣6♣3♦5♣7♦ river, Min Woo Kang moved all-in and was snapped off by Jimmy Torres, who revealed the A♣Q♣ for the nuts. Kang mucked his cards and headed to the payout desk.
Moments later, Day 1b chip leader Vishal Ojha was in dire shape with the K♠10♠ as Jin Woo Kim looked him up with the A♦J♠.
The A♣10♥8♣2♠4♦ runout gave both players a piece and Kim had the best of it to knock out the Indian.

In quick succession, Nevan Chang and Pete Chen were sent to the rail from table one and the next all-in showdown featured a short-stacked Romain Morvan, who was up against Yuhan Liu.
Romain Morvan: Q♣J♣
Yuhan Liu: 9♥9♠
The Q♦4♥2♣9♣ turn gave Liu a set while Morvan still had outs with the flush draw.
"Fuck my life," Morvan then concluded when the 6♦ river bricked off.
"Good luck in the next game," Liu responded but Morvan instantly replied with a "I have had enough for this week".

Romain Morvan pushed all-in for 115,000 from an early position and Yuhan Liu did so from the button for 227,000. Ting-Yi Tsai in the big blind asked for exact counts and used one time bank to then call.
Romain Morvan: 8♥8♠
Yuhan Liu: 10♠10♣
Ting-Yi Tsai: A♥Q♥
"Off suit I fold," Tsai mentioned and the J♦8♦5♠5♦7♦ board gave Morvan a triple-up while Liu doubled through Tsai for the rest.

The UK's Grant Gardner had nursed a short stack for an extended period and doubled once to stay afloat. Ultimately, he took another flip and was up against Evgenii Nekrasov.
Grant Gardner: 10♠10♣
Evgenii Nekrasov: A♠K♥
The K♠4♥2♥ flop improved Nekrasov and the 5♥ turn left Gardner with a single out. Instead, the 9♥ river improved Nekrasov to a flush and that reduced the field to the last 39 contenders.
