On the tail end of a 9♥7♣4♠10♥K♥ board, John Costiniano called a bet worth 2,200 and was shown the A♣6♥ for a missed gutshot and ace-high. Costiniano had that beat with the K♦3♦ and dragged in another pot.
Shin Dean Chihoon check-raised the A♠Q♠10♦ flop and bet the 3♣ turn for 6,000 to then size down to 5,000 on the A♦ river. Fellow countryman Duhan Lee reluctantly called and was shown the K♥J♥ for broadway, which had his A♥J♠ beaten.

Rick Ambata bet the 10♣7♣4♦3♥ turn to get called by Zhiqiang Liu and then bet the 10♥ river for another 15,000. That had Liu's remaining chips covered and the player from China eventually called.
Ambata rolled over the 6♥5♥ for the seven-high straight and Liu briefly exposed the 5♣5♦ before storming out of the tournament area. It was the second bullet for Liu on Day 1b and he can only enter the turbo heat in the evening anymore.
The cards were already on their backs with Namiki Hagio all-in and at risk holding the A♣Q♦.
Hyung Tai Kim looked them up with the A♠2♠ and hit running spades on the 10♦4♦2♠Q♠8♠ board. Hagio re-entered soon after to table 47 as all three available tournament areas at Okada Manila are now in play.
A big pot was brewing to the Q♠3♥2♠K♠ turn when Bernard Vu bet 6,900 into what appeared to be 15,400. He had previously clashed with Hajime Watanabe, who was his opponent once more and jammed for 19,000.
Vu went into the tank and inquired with the floor if it was possible to re-enter before he called with slightly more chips.
Hajime Watanabe: 3♠3♣
Bernard Vu: A♣K♣
The K♥ river was a formality already as Vu hit the rail shortly after and before the tournament went on break.-
