Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Shenglan Yu raised to 40,000 from the small blind and was called by Banipal Babana in the big blind.
Yu continued for 40,000 on the 8♣Q♠4♦ flop and Babana responded with a raise to 95,000.
Undeterred, Yu quickly announced he was all in for 345,000, which got a fold from Babana after a lenthy tank.
At other tables, Kitty Kuo and Corey Kempson were eliminated.
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Aaron Li opened to 40,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 105,000 by Alex Lynskey on the button. Ehsan Amiri then cold four-bet to 320,000 from the small blind and Li moved all in for about 440,000 total.
Lynskey got out of the way and Amiri called for a showdown between himself and Li.
Aaron Li: J♦J♣
Ehsan Amiri: A♦K♥
The board ran out 4♣4♥10♠8♣Q♦ — leaving Li's jacks best to award him the massive double up.
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 6♦3♠4♠ with a large pot already in the middle, Win Tan shoved from the big blind for approximately 600,000 and was quickly called by Masato Yokosawa from under the gun with a covering stack.
Win Tan: A♠8♠
Masato Yokosawa: 10♣10♦
Yokosawa held the lead with his tens, but would need to fade a lot of outs against Tan's flush draw and overcard.
The J♦9♥ turn and river bricked out for Tan, however, and he was forced to surrender his stack over to Yokosawa.

Level 12
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Heads up on a board of 6♦Q♦A♦2♠, Andy Lee bet 45,000 from the big blind and Kitty Kuo called from the cutoff.
The K♥ completed the board and Lee made another wager for 65,000. Kuo didn't take long to look Lee up and Lee tabled A♥10♥ for a pair of aces.
Kuo sent her hand into the muck and said, "I had an ace too, but kicker..."
Lee has more than doubled his stack since the start of play and now holds approximately 2,150,000.
Level 12
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Weiran Pu shoved for his last 275,000 from the cutoff and it was folded to Rehman Kassam, who also announced he was all in for more from the small blind.
Weiran Pu: 2♥2♣
Rehman Kassam: A♥10♥
It was another race, and this one favored Kassam after the 10♠3♦3♥7♠J♥ runout paired his ten to send Pu to the rail.
Level 12
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Malcolm Trayner shoved for his last 65,000 from the small blind. Rehman Kassam quickly called in the big blind and hands were revealed.
Malcolm Trayner: A♦7♣
Rehman Kassam: 8♦6♦
Trayner needed to fade Kassam's live cards and doubled up after the 4♦3♣A♠2♠9♣ left him best with a pair of aces to keep his run alive.
