Yuanning Wu
Yuanning Wu

On the heads-up turn of 74310, Yuanning Wu moved all-in for the last 15,300. He was quickly called by Takashi Nomura with the covering stack and the cards were revealed.

Yuanning Wu: AQ
Takashi Nomura: AA

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.

Sasahara Check-Raises Successfully

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Three ways to the 10523 turn, Riku Sasahara checked and Joseph Magnotti bet 800. He received one caller before Sasahara then check-raised to 3,800. Magnotti folded after one minute as did the third player in the hand.
