We did not catch the initial action but we came up to the table with An Tai Young showing and a in front of Christian Haggart. A board was on the felt and a river completed it. Young couldn't connect and was eliminated in 19th Place.
Raiden Kan was chipped down all the way to just 86,000 chips when he moved all in from the button just now. Tsun Ming Chan, who had been all in many times already, moved all in over the top from the small blind and the big blind gave up.

Tsun Ming Chan had been all in many times before he just found his Waterloo in 18th place. This one last all in went as following as he pushed about 40,000 chips into the pot from early position. Makoto Yoshimichi raised to 104,000 from the small blind and the big blind folded immediately.

The board ran out and that finally marked the end of Chan's impressive run. Yoshimichi meanwhile has put himself near the top of the counts with about 550,000 chips.
Kelvin Beattie went all in from under the gun +1 and it looked like he might get through but he eventually found a caller in Toshimasa Kawahira, from the small blind. Once the big blind folded Kawahira yelled "nuts, baby" as he turned over . Beattie responded with "don't show me the nuts." as he turned over .
The board ran out and Kawahira's aces held, eliminating Beattie from the tournament in 17th place. They are now consolidating down to two tables.
