Takashi Nomura: A♦A♣
Wu needed a spade and got it with the K♠ river to score the double.
One table over, Seokchan Hwang claimed the stack of Hyun Jin Jung to become an early big stack as well.

Nakada Scores an Early Double
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
The cards and board were already exposed when the chips of Yuki Nakada were counted. His A♦Q♦ had flopped the nuts on the K♦8♦7♦9♣10♥ board and Valeriy Pak was left with a mere 300 chips, as his 10♣8♠ were only good enough for a rivered two pair. A few moments later, Pak headed out of the Coral Room and he has one chance to re-enter today.

Hasumi Takes a Chunk Off Krasniqi
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Three ways to the 6♥5♥3♣ flop, Akihiko Hasumi in the small blind and the big blind both checked. Granit Krasniqi bet 600 on the button and Hasumi check-called. The 3♥ fell on the turn and Hasumi check-raised from 1,000 to 2,400, earning a swift call from Krasniqi.
Once the J♦ fell on the river, Hasumi mulled it over for a short while and then bet 3,000. Krasniqi called and exposed his A♠A♦ already but couldn't beat the Q♥J♥ for a flush by Hasumi.
