Gening Dai has been moving all in a lot in the past couple of orbits and neither Chester Swords or Van Marcus have been able to stand up to him.
Dai now has about 29,000,000 in chips, which represents approximately 80 percent of the chips in play.
Heads up on a completed board of 5♠A♦3♣K♥K♦ with about 2,000,000 already in the middle, Chester Swords checked from the big blind and Gening Dai cut out of a bet of 2,600,000 and placed it into the middle.
Swords went deep into the tank, but eventually stuck in a call.
Dai tabled K♣J♠ for trips kings and Swords said, "Nice hand" before sending his cards into the muck.
Van Marcus raised on the button and was called by Gening Dai in the big blind.
Dai check-called a 400,000 bet from Marcus on the A♦4♣3♣ flop and a 475,000 bet from Marcus on the 475,000 turn.
However, Dai check-folded after Marcus announced he was all in for a bit over 3,000,0000 and Marcus dragged the pot without a showdown.
Level: 32
Blinds: 200,000/400,000
Ante: 400,000
Chester Swords opened to 650,000 on the button and was called by Gening Dai in the small blind.
Dai check-called a 400,000 bet from Swords on the 4♣8♣Q♣ and then led out for 1,800,000 after the J♠ fell on the turn. Swords called.
The K♠ filled the river and Dai sized up for a bet of 4,500,000. Swords tanked a bit, but eventually decided to lay his hand down and Dai added to his chip lead.
Gening Dai opened to 600,000 first to act and Kenta Ito defended his big blind.
Ito checked to Dai, who continued for 400,000 on the 3♣9♦3♠ flop. Ito then check-raised to 900,000 and Dai called after a bit of thought.
The J♥ fell on the turn and Ito barreled 1,500,000 into the middle. Dai again called.
Ito announced he was all in for about 3,000,000 after the 2♣ completed the board and Dai quickly tossed in a single chip to indicate a call while turning over J♣J♦ for a turned full house.
An incredulous Ito showed he held Q♦3♦ for flopped trips and walked away from the table in disbelief having been eliminated in fourth place.
Chester Swords limped from the small blind and Kenta Ito paused before exercising his option to raise to 900,000 from the big blind.
Swords thought a bit and then announced he was all in, which got a quick fold from Ito.
"Don't try to sh** in my milkshake!" Swords joked.
"I actually had a good hand!" Ito replied.
"You didn't have sh**" Swords shot back. He then flexed his arm at Ito before dragging the pot.
Level: 31
Blinds: 150,000/300,000
Ante: 300,000
Kenta Ito opened to 500,000 on the button and Van Marcus shoved from the big blind.
"I think this is it," Ito said before calling all in for 4,200,000 total.
Kenta Ito: A♥J♥
Van Marcus: 9♠9♣
"Nine! Nine!" Marcus said.
There was no nine, however, a jack appeared on the Q♠J♦7♦2♠7♣ runout — pairing Ito up and awarding him the double up.
With that pot, Marcus has slipped to under eight figures.
Chester Swords opened to 500,000 from under the gun and was met with a shove for 3,100,000 from Gening Dai in the small blind. Swords asked for a count and then said, "Yep," as he stuck in a call.
Gening Dai: 6♣6♥
Chester Swords: A♠9♥
It was a coin flip that went Dai's way after the 3♦5♠K♦Q♠Q♣ runout held his sixes up for the double.
