It looks like Raymond Wu has had an early setback and is now running on fumes. We say a couple of recent hands where he was looking to get some back without much luck.
Wu opened under the gun for 4,000 and faced a three-bet to 9,700 from Jorn Walthaus to 9,700. Wu called and check-folded to a bet for the rest of his chips on a flop of ![]()
![]()
.
On the next hand he was in the big blind and called a bet of 4,000 from Stephane Blouin. The flop was ![]()
![]()
and when Wu checked a bet of just 3,000 from Blaouin was enough to get a fold from Wu who went on to fold his small blind next hand.

There are a few short stacks looking to double up to get back in contention. One of them is Jack Salter and after a raise of 4,100 from Buyanjargal Bold Salter moved all in from the big blind and got a fold to add a few precious chips to his stack.
A few hands later Salter opened from the cut-off and Man Hang Cheng in the blind had a long think before letting him have the pot.
