Wei Rising, Chung Busts Sukonthachartnant To Take Lead
It was a case of one in, one out, in the OPC High Roller, just like all the best nightclubs. The new arrival is Malaysia's Victor Chong, who got stuck straight into the action after Dmitry Rabotkin opened the action from the hi-jack with a raise to 2,600. Chong called from the cutoff, as did fellow countryman Lim Chin Wei from the button.
Rabotkin did not look best pleased to be called in two spots and checked the 
flop over to Chong, who also checked. Wei thought it over before opting to take a stab at the pot for 3,500, which was enough to get the other two to bow out and Wei raked in the pot.
Taiwan's Chung Yuan Yu and Phanlert Sukonthachartnant picked up where they left off yesterday, battling it out in quite a few pots, though things did not work out for the Thai player as he might have liked.
We only caught the tail end as the stacks were being counted down, but being as Yu had heaps and Sukonthachartnant was short, this did not take long. The community cards were spread 
and Sukonthachartnant had 
face up in front of him. Unfortunately, Yu had 
for a bigger full house and stacked up to 163,000, while Sukonthachartnant hit the rail.
