Sun Takes Over The Lead
Bin Sun opened the action with a raise to 65,000 in the hijack holding the 
and Kazuhiko Yotsushika three-bet to 165,000 with 
in the cutoff. The action folded back to Sun and he made the call to hit top pair on the 
flop.
Sun checked and called a first barrel for 100,000 to see the 
turn, which he checked once more. Yotsushika made it 475,000 to go with a pure bluff and Sun called to create a pot of 1.4 million between the two chip leaders.
After the 
river, Sun checked a third time and Yotsushika fired a third barrel for 500,000 to send Sun into the think tank. He already tossed in a time bank extension and then counted his remaining stack before making the call.
The biggest pot of the tournament so far vaulted Sun into a comfortable lead while Yotsushika dropped to third place.
